Matteo Politano has discussed Inter’s end to the season in an interview with Sport Mediaset where he looked ahead to this weekend’s match with Lazio.

“It is vital that we do well in the next ten games. It will be a tough game against Lazio, they always defend very well away from home. On our part, we have to do well and manage the ball.”

Asked about his Inter’s goals for the remainder of the season he replied: “We are thinking only about ourselves, game after game. We have a good lead in the Champions League race and we need to look to preserve it.”

He also spoke on his recent experience with the Italian national team over the international break.

“It is always an honour to wear the Azzurri shirt and it was important for me to play the whole game so that I could show what I can do to the Coach, also with a view to future call-ups.”
