by · Daily Post

Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi has singled out Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal for praise ahead of both sides’ UEFA Champions League semi-final second-leg tie on Tuesday.

Inzaghi described the Spain international as truly dangerous, adding that he is a huge talent.

He also revealed his plans to contain Yamal as Inter host the Blaugrana at San Siro.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, Inzaghi said (via Mundo Deportivo): “We have to try not to let him get the ball, but it is impossible. Obviously, he will be double-marked, he will be closely watched, so we will try to pay attention to him.

“In person, he is a huge talent, he is truly dangerous; everyone gives him the ball. I was impressed by his quick thinking; he always knows what play to make.”

Yamal scored a goal in the first-leg encounter as both Inter and Barcelona played a 3-3 draw at Camp Nou.
