Thuram hushes injury fears and Inter Champions League final repeat: ‘Long way to go’ | OneFootball

Marcus Thuram insists that there is nothing to worry about regarding a potential injury after Inter’s 3-0 Champions League victory over Slavia Prague, and says that it is far too soon to say whether the Nerazzurri are capable of making it all the way to the final again.

Thuram was among the star performers as Inter picked up a 3-0 win over Slavia Prague in the Champions League league phase to maintain their winning start in the competition after two matches.

A brace from Lautaro Martinez and another Champions League goal from wing-back Denzel Dumfries gave the Nerazzurri the three points in San Siro on Tuesday night.
