Lautaro, goal and record: "It means a lot: since day one, it's as if I've been born here"

“This new record means a lot to me. Since I arrived, I've been treated as if I were born here. This is something very valuable to me. I need to keep working, just like we have been doing. Today, we faced a very strong opponent after the international break, with many difficulties. The team needed to show up, and it did. We must continue like this, especially with the Champions League and Juventus coming up. The most beautiful goal I've scored for Inter is my first one, a header at San Siro against Cagliari. That goal opened the door to everything that's followed. I've talked a lot with Messi during national duty, but not about the Ballon d'Or. I'm also happy for the national team’s current form and because he’s back playing with us. I'm thrilled to be on the shortlist for the France Football award because I always work hard, and individual awards hold great significance. It's important for me, but I always think of the team first. If awards come, the credit goes to the team, the club, and the staff. We are a great group, and I'm pleased because everyone works in their own way to raise the level. I dedicate the Man of the Match award to my mum and my wife, as today is Mother’s Day in Argentina.”
