Federico Dimarco opens up about stepping away from friends after the end of the 2024-25 season and reveals the Nerazzurri hoped to score one goal in the first half against Pisa on Friday.<\/p>\n

Dimarco was introduced as a substitute after just 34 minutes in Inter\u2019s 6-2 win over Pisa. The Serie A giants were two goals down and scored three times before the break after the Italian defender was subbed in.<\/p>\n

Dimarco provided one goal and one assist, resulting in the man of the match at San Siro.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I came on, the only thing on our minds was winning the match, nothing else. We didn\u2019t start well,\u201d Dimarco told DAZN via FcInter1908.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe idea was to score at least one goal in the first half, and then the second half would be long. Then we scored three and did well. It can happen when you play so many games; sometimes you can get the approach wrong, but it was important to turn it around.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dimarco has been a key Inter player so far this season with five goals and nine assists in 20 Serie A matches.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve always worked hard in training. After the bad spell last season, I wanted to start from scratch. I spent a month where I disappeared from my friends, as I needed time to reflect,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cI tried to start again as strongly as possible, and I managed to do it. I isolated myself to think about where I could improve. Not only on the pitch, but also on a personal level. I\u2019m happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Inter\u2019s win allows the Nerazzurri to extend their lead at the top of the table.<\/p>\n

Cristian Chivu\u2019s men now have six points more than second-placed Milan. The Rossoneri will visit Roma at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday night.<\/p>\n
