Valentino Lazaro has shared his delight after Austria’s 3-0 EURO 2020 qualifier win over Israel last night, a match in which he opened the scoring.

“I think it was all about winning today [yesterday]. It was not our best game of the season, but we saw that we really wanted the three points and we definitely fought for them,” he said in an interview with Spox.com.

“It is very, very nice to be fully in the running and I think we deserve it because we have worked very hard for this. We did not get start the game all that well, but each of us fought for every inch. After all, we scored three goals, a home win and we are still in the running for qualification. We are overjoyed.”
