GENOA – Four goals took Mauro Icardi up to 100 goals in Serie A overall and then 100 in an Inter shirt from 172 appearances. But his goals along with Perisic’s strike were important above all for delivering three important points for the Nerazzurri. “We needed a match like that because we had to win today after the 0-0 with Napoli,” he said after Sampdoria 0-5 Inter. “We had the right approach and that showed with the result. The Coach knows how to manage certain moments, he provoked us a bit and we needed to show that we had quality today. Today it was on show but we can obviously improve further and we must do so.”
The captain then discussed the historic milestone that he reached in the match. “I’ve scored 100 goals in Serie A and 100 with Inter, I’m happy but I didn’t expect them to come today. I scored my first goal in the top flight here, it was destiny. But, the win was the most important thing. I also went through a difficult time with my injury, I had something bothering me and I couldn’t play without having it on my mind. Now, it’s just an unpleasant memory, I’m back available and I want to help the team."
