The Nerazzurri president comments after the victory in the derby that sent Inter through to the Champions League final


For the sixth time in their history Inter reaches the final of the European Cup/Champions League. An extraordinary achievement, which comes 13 years since the last time (the victory in the final in Madrid against Bayern Munich) and which is even more exciting because it was achieved thanks to a double victory in the semi-final against AC Milan.

After the match, Nerazzurri president Steven Zhang commented on the victory and the Nerazzurri's journey in the Champions League.

“It is definitely the greatest feeling after the Scudetto. It is a great pleasure and reward for our work, we have built a team capable of returning to the top in Europe. It doesn't happen every year to have a campaign like this in the Champions League. Credit to the coach, the whole staff and the players, who are giving everything for the club. Every season is special and has its own history, but honestly it was difficult to imagine at the beginning of the year that we could reach the Champions League final. I have to admit, though, that Lukaku told me we could go all the way and he was right.”

“Inter have success in their history, when we bought the club we knew we were coming to a club with a history of success, that's why we take the field every match with the aim of winning and that's what we promise our fans. Every match is a final for us. Inzaghi? In every season there are ups and downs, but Inzaghi has a winning mentality and has been very good at getting the team on the right track. I have worked with many coaches and Inzaghi is certainly special, he always keeps calm in any kind of situation and this is an incredible quality. ”

“Manchester City or Real Madrid? They are both very strong teams, but we came through a group with great opponents, so it will definitely be a spectacular final. Anything can happen over 90 minutes and we will try to play it to the maximum. This is the seventh year I've been here, when we arrived there were players who had never played in the Champions League, now we are in the final and we have managed to bring Inter back to the top. That was our goal and as long as we are here we will do everything to keep the club at this level of competitiveness.”
