— Jan 26th 2025The thoughts of the Nerazzurri defender after the 4-0 victory away to Lecce on matchday 22
Inter came away with a fantastic four-goal victory away to Lecce on matchday 22 in Serie A. At the Via Del Mare, the Nerazzurri dominated and opened the scoring through Frattesi in the sixth minute, before Lautaro found the net with a brilliant strike after 39 minutes. Then, after the restart, Dumfries and Taremi (from the penalty spot) also got on the scoresheet. After the match, Matteo Darmian once again highlighted the importance of the group:
“It was a good performance. We took to the pitch with the right determination, making it clear that we wanted to come away with a victory at a tough ground. We’ve secured another three crucial points. There’s real spirit, desire and togetherness here. We enjoy spending time together, and we show that this is the case when we step onto the field. Everyone trusts each other. We know how important Lautaro is for us, and he was making a big contribution in attack and defence even when he wasn’t scoring. We all know his value, and now he’s started scoring consistently again. We hope that this continues. From tomorrow, we’ll start thinking about our Champions League match against Monaco because we want to finish in the top eight. Napoli are having a great season and are a strong side, but we want to compete with them until the very end.”
