Inter Milan wingback Federico Dimarco is pleased with his opening goal in this evening’s Serie A win over Empoli.

The 26-year-old wingback spoke to InterTV, via FCInterNews, after the 2-0 victory. He emphasized that as far as his goal, “the important thing is to score them.”

Dimarco was the scorer of Inter’s first goal in their Serie A clash with Empoli this evening.

It didn’t take long for the Italian international to find the back of the net.

And Dimarco did so in some style. The 26-year-old found the back of the net with a sweeping first-time finish from an Alessandro Bastoni pass.

This was perhaps not the best goal that Dimarco has scored this season.

The Inter wingback had scored a brilliant volley against Empoli in the reverse fixture in the autumn. And he had also scored a remarkable long-range effort from the halfway line against Frosinone.

But Dimarco is certainly making a habit of scoring great goals.

And the Italian’s strike this evening was certainly another example of that.

Federico Dimarco On Goal Vs Empoli: The Important Thing Is To Score Them

Asked if he “doesn’t know how to score normal goals,” Dimarco replied with a smile that “The important thing is to score them.”

“Above all, it wasn’t an easy one to hit. But I’m happy to have struck it well, because it went in.”

“We work a lot on these kinds of passing chains, on the phases of play high up the pitch.”

Dimarco noted that “We always try to have one or two players attacking in behind the defenders.”

“We’re happy that the things we’re working on in training are coming off during the matches.”

As far as how his opener affected the match, Dimarco noted that “When teams come to play at the San Siro, it’s never easy.”

“If we take the lead right away, it certainly makes it go downhill from there,” the 26-year-old continued.

“But I also have to give credit to Empoli. Because they caused problems for us this evening.”

As far as his positional role, Dimarco said, “As I always say, these are things we work on in training.”

“I always try to interpret my position in my own way. And also, to free up space for my teammates.”
