Felipe Melo slammed the Inter attitude after a 3-1 Europa League defeat at Sparta Prague. “We started playing after going 2-0 down.”
The Nerazzurri have zero points and sit at the bottom of their Europa League group, having also lost 2-0 to Hapoel Beer-Sheva.
Today the Israeli champions drew 0-0 with Southampton.
“We must understand that Europe is not simple, it is different to playing in Italy. We have to play every game as if it’s a derby and so far we haven’t done that,” Melo told Sky Sport Italia.
“The second half was better, but after the red card it became really tough. Before the break we only started playing once we were already 2-0 down.
“We expected Sparta Prague to be strong, because they changed Coach and that always creates an extra desire to prove yourself within the squad.
“This is not the moment to talk, we need to bring out everything we’ve got and prepare for Roma, because there’s no time for anything else.
“On the second goal we should’ve closed down the free kick, I was taught that as a child, but today nobody put themselves in that position and we left the opponent clear. It’s a collective error and everyone is to blame when we lose, just as everyone deserves credit when we win.”
