After Inter Milan’s 3-1 Serie A win over Bologna, Yann Bisseck spoke to DAZN, expressing satisfaction with the performance while offering warm praise for captain Lautaro Martinez.
Bisseck initially sparked concern with his facial expression during the interview, but quickly played it down with humour.
“I’m old, that’s all,” he joked, with quotes via FCInterNews, before clarifying. “No, seriously, I’m fine. We’re happy because we played a great match.”
The only negative note, he admitted, was conceding a goal.
“That part doesn’t sit well with me, but it can happen. Overall, it was a very strong performance.”

The German centre-back reserved special words for Lautaro, underlining the importance of his leadership within the group.
“He’s like that – he’s Argentine, they’re all a bit crazy,” Bisseck laughed, before turning serious.
“But he’s a great captain. He always plays for the team, and not all strikers do that. I’m really happy that he’s my captain.”
Bisseck also explained how his role changes depending on where he is used in the back three.
“When I play as the central defender, I have a lot of responsibility. I need to keep the line high and focus more on defending,” he said.
“As a right-sided centre-back, I’m freer mentally. It’s important to help going forward too.”
Confident in his abilities, the defender added: “I think I have the qualities to do that, and I always try to give something extra. Today I think I played well, but I know I can still do better.”
For Inter, the win over Bologna put old demons to rest while Bisseck’s words reflected a squad growing in confidence, and guided by a captain whose commitment continues to set the tone.
