Inter Milan Vs Roma – Nerazzurri In Need Of Mental Recovery After Tough Month | OneFootball

Cristian Chivu has once again stepped into the role of psychologist as much as head coach, offering words of comfort and personal support to the five Inter players eliminated from the World Cup, with Corriere dello Sport identifying mental recovery as the priority heading into the Easter Sunday clash with Roma.

According to Corriere, via FCIN, the management and coaching staff made a point of gathering the squad tightly upon their return to Appiano Gentile.

“A word of comfort, an embrace, the idea was to draw together and regroup, in order to recover strength and energy. At this point, more mental than physical,” the outlet write.

Inter Vs Roma – Selection To Be Based On Technical Merit As Lautaro Return Lifts The Mood

Despite the emotional turbulence within the squad, Corriere are clear that team selection will not be dictated by sentiment or fragility.

Bastoni has arguably taken the heaviest personal blow of any Inter player in recent weeks.

However, he has already shown the resilience to perform regardless.

Selection decisions will be purely technical, barring any unforeseen setbacks.

The return of Lautaro Martinez changes the dynamic entirely.

His presence alone lifts the mood, refocuses attention on what matters, and gives Inter a genuine focal point around which to rebuild their momentum.

Eight games remain. The lead is intact. The mental reset starts now.
