Barella: "A great team victory, this group has great potential"

FLORENCE – Another dominant performance by Nicolò Barella, who scored the opening goal for the Nerazzurri in the 2-0 victory against Fiorentina with a wonderful strike: "All the victories are important, but we did well to pick ourselves up immediately after the Juventus defeat, winning on a difficult pitch such as the one here in Florence,” he said to Sky Sport. “We could have perhaps wrapped up the game earlier, but we can enjoy the win and are happy to have put in a good team performance.

"It's a positive period for me. The goals are now coming, but all credit goes to the team for creating the right conditions for me to perform at my best. Similarities with Conte the player? He scored more than me, I hope to improve in this respect because I could have done better tonight. However, the important thing is that Inter come out with a win, not my goals.

“This team has great potential," he added when talking to Inter TV. "Maybe we’re lacking something in front of goal, and we need to be more cynical. However, we're working on it and are aiming to wrap up these games sooner.”
