Albania Star's Verdict On Inter Milan 2-1 Urawa Red Diamonds Win: ‘Important To Win, But We Have To Give A Lot More'
Albania Star's Verdict On Inter Milan 2-1 Urawa Red Diamonds Win: 'Important To Win, But We Have To Give A Lot More' Kristjan Asllani says that it was 'important to win' for Inter Milan against Urawa Red Diamonds, but that they still 'have to give more.' The Albanian spoke to reporters after the 2-1 Club World Cup group stage victory, via FCInterNews. Advertisement Inter Milan defeated Urawa Red Diamonds yesterday. They got their first win at the FIFA Club World Cup in their second group stage match. Inter had to do it hard way. They trailed for the majority of the match, but won right at the end courtesy of a stoppage time winner from substitute Valentin Carboni. This gave Inter something to really build on heading into their final group stage match against River Plate. They will feel confident they can book their place in the knockouts now. Asllani: 'Important For Inter To Win Vs Urawa Reds, But We Have To Give More' TURIN, ITALY – MAY 11: Kristjan Asllani of FC Internazionale celebrates scoring his team's second goal during the Serie A match between Torino and FC Internazionale at Stadio Olimpico di Torino on May 11, 2025 in Turin, Italy. (Photo by) Inter Milan midfielder Kristjan Asllani gave his thoughts after yesterday's match. 'We had a bit of trouble after conceding,' he admitted. Advertisement 'But they also defended very well.' 'They sat very deep. And we had trouble finding players between the lines.' 'Then in the second half we went back to having three players in midfield,' Asllani noted. 'And maybe then we did better.' 'They dropped deeper,' the 22-year-old continued. 'And we did well to win, it was really important for us to do so.' But Asllani made clear that 'we have to improve.' 'Because a team like ours shouldn't concede goals. And we've conceded two in two matches, both after not that many minutes.' Asllani commented that 'we definitely have to review the errors we made.' 'And we have to grow together.' Advertisement Meanwhile, of Inter's physical condition, Asllani noted that 'all the teams are tired.' 'But we don't care about that. We have to give a lot more, because great things are there for us to take.' 'We're not struggling. We just haven't had enough time to train together.' 'We were together for a few days,' Asllani noted. 'And a lot of players are still absent.'

Liverpool looking to strike £30m deal with Crystal Palace for forward
Liverpool have got plans to overhaul their strike line this summer. We could see Alexander Isak or Victor Osimhen arrive at the club in the No9 position - with Darwin Nunez set for the exit. Florian Wirtz has already been announced as Liverpool's record signing on a fee that could rise to £116m. The attack will be built around the talents of the Germany international in the seasons to come but given the scale of the outlay some departures will be required. Advertisement There are question marks against Federico Chiesa and Luis Diaz. Chiesa will probably end up back in Serie A with Napoli while Diaz is a target for Saudi Pro League clubs. One other player who could also be heading out of the club is Ben Doak. The 19-year-old enjoyed a breakout season on loan at Middlesbrough before injury struck in February. Ben Doak available for sale Before that he'd been flying high for the Championship promotion hopefuls with Liverpool even fielding enquiries from Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace in January. Neither club was prepared to match Liverpool's valuation - said to be around £30m - and Doak's situation remained unresolved. Advertisement Now the season is over, Arne Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes have a decision to make over Doak. Do they keep him around as a backup to Mohamed Salah or do they cash in if a proper offer arrives? It appears Liverpool club bosses are indeed prepared to sanction a sale for the Scotland international. Furthermore, Crystal Palace could well be back on the menu - the same club that could end up selling Marc Guehi to the Reds. © IMAGO - Ben Doak Liverpool 2024-25 £30m Doak chased by Crystal Palace In an item discussing Everton's move for Tom Fellows of West Brom, it's claimed by TEAMtalk that the Toffees have ended their pursuit for Doak as a result of their efforts to sign the England under-21 international. Advertisement But the report also adds that Liverpool say Doak is available for a transfer this summer and Palace are again on his case. 'Doak caught the eye on loan at Middlesbrough last season and the Liverpool winger is free to leave with Crystal Palace also keen,' the report reads. 'Liverpool's £30m price tag looks to have scared off suitors, for now, with Palace pushing to strike an agreement for the 19-year-old.' The wide man remains a fine player but with Liverpool having signed up Salah for two more seasons - and adding Jeremie Frimpong - he would struggle for significant game time.
