Not long ago, Barcelona and Inter Milan's former player Montoya accepted an interview with Di Mazio, talked about Inter Milan's Champions League semi-finals against Barcelona, and praised the current Barcelona players.
He said: "I have a hunch that this will be a tense game, and the number of goals will not be as many as the first leg. I think the game may be dragged into overtime to determine the winner. Inter will give up the ball to Barcelona, and the whole team will defend together. This is the tactic that Inter Milan is good at, and then try to use the speed of Dumfries and Toulam to fight back. Secret weapon? I think it is Lautaro, he is a top striker and one of the strongest players in the world."
"Barcelona is a very young team, and under the leadership of Frick, it continues the club's traditional philosophy. They have excellent ball possession and will immediately strive to counterattack in a few seconds after losing the ball. This concept ranges from Guardiola to Enrique, and then to It's all continuing now. "
About Barcelona players
"Balde and Conde's absence is crucial. They are the main players. Although they are young, they already have experience on the big stage. Eric Garcia will replace him. He has good skills under his feet, but he is not a pure full-back after all."
"Pedri and Yamal are both talented players and have won the championship. Yamal is like Messi in some places, and some places are like Neymar. I have worked with these two people: he has Messi's left foot skills, ball protection ability and incision movements; he also has Neymar's one-on-one ability and extraordinary skills. "
"Pedri reminds me of Iniesta, which is very similar. They are not only excellent in their skills , and the character is also great. When I was promoted from La Macia to the first team, Iniesta has been helping me. I heard that Pedri is helping young people like this now."
About Barcelona's 2015 Triple Champions
"It was an incredible journey. In addition to the final victory, the best memories are the quarter-finals against Paris. At that time, I also started and assisted Suarez. That Barcelona made history. I believe that this Barcelona team is also possible this year. They have won the King's Cup and led the La Liga, and are only the last 90 minutes away from the Champions League final. "
About playing for Inter Milan for a short 6 months in 2015
"I wanted to seize the opportunity of Inter Milan at that time. The club management wanted me, but the coaches did not trust me. I had no regrets, but I was really disappointed with the result. I originally wanted to succeed at Inter Milan, and at least I should have the opportunity to prove my strength. In fact, I adapted well in the locker room. There were many South American players, and everyone spoke Spanish. Milan is a beautiful city. My wife and I often take a walk in the city center or go to Lake Como. But it was really difficult for me to adapt to the tactics and defensive rhythm of switching from Barcelona's style to Serie A."
"The club was in the reconstruction period, and now Inter Milan is a world-class team, with clear ideas, and strong coaches like Inzagi."
