A brace was a night he’d been ‘dreaming of’ for Inter in the 5-0 Europa League semi-final win over Shakhtar Donetsk, said Lautaro Martinez.
While header Danilo D’Ambrosio completed the rout, Argentina International has had two goals.
“It was an incredible night, the kind we dreamed of. It had been a long time since I played that well, and in a semi-final, we proved Inter are ready for great things. We’re ready for the Final,” Lautaro told Sky Sport Italia.
“These goals give me so much, as there was a period when I wasn’t at my usual levels, but this experience helps you to grow. I am very happy with the way the team is playing and showing such character. We’re getting better game by game and I am happy on a personal level too, as I am going to have my first child, so I dedicate the goals to my wife and family.”
“We just keep getting stronger, showing maturity with both young players and more experienced ones like Samir Handanovic, Danilo D’Ambrosio, and Diego Godin. They point the way and we all follow.”
