BRUSSELS - He had an excellent game and was singled out for praise by coach Mancini and his teammates after the final whistle at the Constant Vanden Stock. But Esteban Cambiasso preferred to focus on the team's performance in his post-match comments.
"We played well and we all did well," said the Argentine midfielder, who in his holding role gave solid defensive cover, allowing Veron and co to attack with greater freedom. "Inter gave an excellent team performance. It's very important that we all played a great match."
Cambiasso added: "We're first in the group now but we mustn't think about this too much. We must play our remaining matches like we did this evening. We mustn't make calculations because they're useless."
