Milan Skriniar is happy to have made his 200th appearance with Inter and hopes ‘many more will come’ but admits the Nerazzurri are ‘not fresh’ and must improve up front.

The Serie A champions picked up a 0-0 draw against their city rivals Milan in the first leg of the Coppa Italia semi-finals last night. It was Skriniar’s 200th game with the Nerazzurri.

“I’m pleased to have made 200 appearances for Inter. I hope to play many more games for this club,” the Slovakia international told Inter TV.

“The derby is always a special game, with many chances and so much pressure on both teams. We need the freshness and sparkle that we had a few matches ago because we’re not scoring goals and we’ve been creating less, but we’re Inter. We’re the same team that we were before and I’m confident. We’ll rediscover our strength. Until then, we can enjoy the clean sheet.

“We need a win to get back on track. We’re looking forward to the game against Salernitana on Friday. It won’t be easy as they’re scrapping for points to survive.”
