Although he scored the only goal that saved the World champions from a defeat against the Lithuanian national team, the forward stated that Italy deserved the victory.
"I think Italy played great, and their goalkeeper (Žydrūnas Karčemarskas - ed. note) played fantastically. Despite the fact that they were much better prepared physically, we were not lucky - Italy deserved the victory," said the 33-year-old Italian.
This draw is a painful blow for Italy, as they will face the World vice-champions France in the next match on Wednesday, who easily defeated Georgia 3-0 away on Saturday.
"You can't blame the team for their attitude. Every time we step on the field, we are eager to fight and give it our all," defended the forward known as "Pippo" his teammates. "It won't be easy against France."
Furthermore, Inzaghi did not miss the opportunity to thank the Real Madrid striker Antonio Cassano, who provided the assist for the only goal scored by Italy.
"It's easy to play with Cassano, as he is an incredible talent. Of course, it's great to score, but I really would like to thank the fantastic fans for a better result," said the Italian.
