Fabregas: ‘Como deserved victory over Inter, dream is to challenge for more’

Cesc Fabregas lauded his Como side’s tactical discipline following a goalless draw with Inter, asserting that the underdogs were the more likely team to secure a first-leg advantage.

Como manager Cesc Fabregas believes his side deserved more than a 0-0 draw against Inter in their Coppa Italia semi-final first leg.

Deploying Nico Paz as a false nine, the hosts restricted the Serie A leaders to a single shot on target.

“The result is what it is. Overall, I feel that perhaps we deserved to score a goal,” Fabregas remarked after the stalemate.

Reflecting on the club’s rapid ascent from Serie B, Fabregas emphasized his long-term ambitions for the project.

While the second leg at San Siro remains undecided, he remains focused on constant growth and tactical evolution.

“I cannot lie, the dream is to challenge for more,” he noted, praising his players for forcing the dominant Nerazzurri into a more defensive, tactical “chess match.”
