Inter won 2-0 in Riyadh thanks to Denzel Dumfries' brace.
“The boys were excellent, there was no doubt about that against a team of great quality. We wanted this Final, we have taken the first step and now know that the most important one still needs to be taken, but to create so many chances against Atalanta is honestly something to be proud of,” Inzaghi told Sport Mediaset.
More goals could have been scored, as Marco Carnesecchi made a series of remarkable saves from Lautaro Martinez, while at the other end Ederson's goal was ruled offside.
“The goalkeeper also saved Mkhitaryan and Dimarco. When we didn't score the third goal, there was a possibility that Atalanta would come back, but I couldn't have asked much more from my boys.
“Our only mistake was not finishing the game earlier, but I really can't complain about the good opposition. I am very satisfied, especially with all these trips and a full competition list, but still the boys have shown determination, concentration and focus. We have exceeded all expectations this season.”
