Bodo/Glimt Vs Inter Milan – Chivu Prioritizes Champions League Clash Ending Derby d’Italia Controversy | OneFootball

Inter Milan coach Cristian Chivu shifts focus to the Champions League clash against Bodo/Glimt, leaving the Derby d’Italia controversy behind.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 45-year-old hopes to channel recent off-field turmoil into added motivation.

The Nerazzurri squeezed past arch-rivals Juventus in Saturday’s derby at San Siro, posting their first high-profile Serie A win under Chivu.

However, star center-back Alessandro Bastoni came under fire after his antics contributed to the sending off of Pierre Kalulu.

Bastoni had to turn off comments on social media after receiving death threats from Juventus supporters.

Still, the 26-year-old is likely to return to the starting lineup tomorrow, with Inter set to face Bodo/Glimt on the synthetic pitch.

With that in mind, the squad trained in similar conditions yesterday, as Cristian Chivu wants his side prepared for the upcoming challenge.
