Inter Milan faces Atlético de Madrid in Champions League round of 16 first leg on Wednesday. Italian champions are 16 points ahead of Serie A runner-up AC Milan.
Simone Inzaghi is rolling in Serie A with a minimalist but mature team of his strength. Thierry Henry gave the name of the Italian when asked which coach he admired tactically. Inter have 24 “clean sheets” (matches without conceding a goal) in 35 matches, more than any team in the five major European championships this season.
