The competitive rage and the desire to win are evident in every gesture and every word. Lautaro Martinez fought until the last second of the match, even providing the assist for the two-to-one goal scored by Carlos Augusto. The Inter captain did not hide his disappointment in front of the Sky Sport microphones, while still acknowledging the value of the opponent.
“Then it gets difficult, they are strong, they are a top-level team, but today Inter came here and played a game with personality, like a great team. They are a team that fights to win the Champions, just like us, which is our goal,” declared the Argentine striker. Words that reflect the mentality of someone who wants to go all the way in the competition and is not satisfied with just a respectable performance.
The determination of Martinez also emerges from his conviction that the Nerazzurri deserved something more, even though they were up against one of the best goalkeepers in the world, Courtois. According to the captain, Inter showed they can compete at the highest level, displaying the personality and quality of a great team.
Even on social media, the number ten wanted to make his voice heard with a direct message: “We deserved more. We move forward. See you Monday at San Siro.” A post that confirms his focus is already on the next challenge, without dwelling on what happened. The mentality remains that of someone who is hungry for success and wants to lead the team ever higher.
