In an interview with Inter’s official broadcaster Inter TV, Inter legend Ivan Zamorano has reflected on Inter’s emphatic 4-2 Derby della Madonnina win over city rivals AC Milan last night at San Siro.
The Chilean, who famously wore the number 1+8 during his time with the club, started by discussing the change between the first and second half performances put in by Inter manager Antonio Conte’s side.
“I lost my voice celebrating the fourth goal which was scored by Lukaku. The first half was difficult. AC Milan were so focused and Inter did not play. After going two goals behind, it was difficult to imagine what would have happened in the second half but this Inter has character, heart and pride. The team has wonderful determination,” he started.
Zamorano then spoke on the moment he believes flipped the game in Inter’s favour and led to them running away with things in the end.
“The most important moment of the game was Brozovic’s goal. From then on, there was only one team on the pitch: Inter.”
He then spoke on how this result will boost the confidence of the players ahead of their next league match which comes against fellow title chasers Lazio this coming weekend.
“The win at San Siro can give a great injection of confidence ahead of Lazio which is a fundamental game.”
Zamorano spent five years on Inter’s books between 1996 and 2001. The 53-year-old striker, who also played for Real Madrid and the Chilean national team during his career, made exactly 150 appearances across all competitions in an Inter shirt, in which he scored 41 goals and tallied a single assist.
