— Oct 24th 2023The thoughts of the Nerazzurri midfielder following Inter vs. FC Salzburg
A perfect penalty to continue his perfect record: he's scored all nine of the spot-kicks he's taken in an Inter shirt. Hakan Calhanoglu's goal scored three vital points for Inter in Champions League Group D. The Turkish midfielder, who was named the Man of the Match by UEFA, had the following to say after the game:
“We knew that Salzburg are a tough team to face and that they do plenty of running. It was important to win this match before our away game against them, which won’t be easy. We need to carry on playing with the right mentality and with intelligence, like we did this evening. It isn’t easy to play every three days, and we did very well. I’m happy with the win. I always like to lend a helping hand and have grown over the past few months. Let’s hope that things carry on the way they’re going from the penalty spot, too. It’s great to find the net. The fans always get behind us, and I’d like to thank them. We want to keep this up. ”
