Simone Inzaghi returns to Lazio dugout after recovering from COVID and insists the Biancocelesti still believe they can qualify for the Champions League.

Lazio are seven points behind fourth-placed Juventus, but have a game in hand. They face Milan at the Stadio Olimpico tomorrow.

"It's an important game. It's like a knock-out match. The girone d'andata affected us, and the same is true of European games. We've made a great comeback, winning 12 of the last 16 games. We must continue to believe," Inzaghi said at a press conference.

Inzaghi missed the last three games due to COVID, but the coach has now recovered.

"I am happy to be back. It wasn't an easy moment. Having my wife and my three sons positive wasn't a pleasing experience. Luckily it's over," he said.

"I want to congratulate the lads and my staff. We won two important matches."

However, the Biancocelesti lost 5-2 against Napoli on Thursday.

"Unfortunately, we were not the architects of our destiny on Thursday, although we must congratulate Napoli," Inzaghi claimed.

"They had all the players at their best and played a great game. We are sorry, we had made an incredible effort".
