D'Ambrosio, a goal on the way to the final: "Victory for the whole group"

DÜSSELDORF - "Go, Danilo!" These were the words of encouragement from Antonio Conte as Brozovic whipped in the corner. Danilo attacked the ball and Danilo scored. He made it 2-0, knocking the wind out of Shakhtar. It was his fifth goal of the season, a personal record. Another headed goal as well, something that the Nerazzurri are well accustomed too by now - 25 in all competitions this season.

After the game, the Nerazzurri’s number 33 spoke to the Sky Sport microphones about the emotions of winning such a crucial game by such a big margin. "We deserved to win and won as a team: it wasn't just about those who played. Everyone’s fighting for the same objective, and this is important for the ones who are starting and for the Coach, who sees a determined group. So in this way, we also manage to get the best out of individuals. I’m most proud of the fact that after every season, they tell me I’ve had the best season of my career. It means that I’m doing the right thing. I want to thank the Club for allowing me to stay here for so long. I also want to thank the Coach, who has faith in me, and my teammates for always giving 100%. We did well, but we have a Coach who teaches football and always gets us firing on all cylinders: we take to the pitch always knowing what needs to be done."
