Team
— Jan 19th 2025An incredible goal to break the deadlock in the match against Empoli and guide the team to victory, his 111th in Serie A for Inter: the thoughts of the Inter captain at the end of the match
He opened the scoring against Empoli with a stunning, technical and powerful goal. A remarkable goal for Lautaro Martinez who has now scored 111 league goals, making him the second highest foreign goalscorer in the history of Inter in Serie A (alongside Mauro Icardi), just behind Stefano Nyers (133). Man of the Match in the win at San Siro, the Inter captain shared his thoughts at the end of the match.
“We were a bit annoyed tonight because we came off the back of a draw after a brilliant performance against Bologna, but we have to look forward. The match wasn't easy tonight, they were very organised in the first half, but we found spaces in the second half, passed the ball quickly and did what we needed to do to get the three points. From the point that I started playing football, I have always thought about improving and this is something I want to give to the younger players and teammates like Asllani, who give their all in training. We all have to be like this, we give our all for this shirt, everyone gives 100% for Inter and we are proud of this team. We now have to recover and think about the next games, there's a long season ahead and we all have to be ready. Napoli? We're three points behind them with a game in hand, but we must only think about ourselves because we need to grow every year. I am working well, I feel good, I always try to give my all, it's more difficult sometimes but I am happy, I work for Inter and try to give 100% all the time. ”
