Inter Milan & France Defender Thrilled After Huge Victory Vs Arsenal: “Ten Points & Zero Goals Conceded”

Star defender Benjamin Pavard couldn’t hide his joy after Inter Milan squeezed past Arsenal in a mouth-watering UEFA Champions League clash.

During his post-match interview with InterTV, as reported by FCInterNews, Pavard pointed out the quality of Inter’s sturdy defense.

Though Arsenal enjoyed more possession and generated a jaw-dropping xG of 2.22 goals, they couldn’t beat Yann Sommer.

On the other hand, the Italian champions were clinical.

After wasting countless chances in a 1-0 Serie A win against Venezia on Sunday, they netted from their only shot on target tonight.

Hakan Calhanoglu made no mistake from the spot toward the end of the first half.

Little did anyone at Giuseppe Meazza know it would be a match-winner.

However, Inter forged a wall in front of Sommer’s goal in the second half.

Despite facing constant siege, Simone Inzaghi’s team held their ground to fend off Arsenal’s relentless attacks.

Pavard played a pivotal role.

Pavard’s defensive prowess helped Inter weather the storm and pick up a vital three points.

“We are very happy,” the Frenchman admitted. “We have ten points and have not conceded any goals in the first four games.

“Today was a match of great effort and commitment.

“We achieved three important points that allow us to approach the Napoli match in the best possible way, now we are focused on that.”

Tonight’s triumph extended Inter’s unbeaten streak in all competitions to nine games.

Impressively, Inzaghi’s charges racked up eight wins in that sequence.

Therefore, Inter will square off against Napoli next weekend in a confident mood.

Antonio Conte will return to Meazza as a foe, looking to put a dent in the Nerazzurri’s Scudetto defense.

However, the reigning Serie A champions have hit a purple patch.

A fourth consecutive unbeaten league clash against the Partenopei looks very likely.
