ICARDI: "WE ALL BELIEVED, IT'S A DESERVED ACCOMPLISHMENT!"

The joy of the Nerazzurri captain after the Lazio win: "We overturned the result with heart and grit, fourth is a reward for everyone's work"

ROME - With his 29th goal of the season, Mauro Icardi was one of the stars of the spectacular 3-2 win that allowed the Nerazzurri to move above Lazio into fourth. The Nerazzurri captain finished the season as top scorer and Inter are back in the Champions League. 

"The match wasn’t going well but as we showed against Juventus, we have the determination and strength to overturn certain results," he said after the match. "We had the objective of qualifying for the Champions League from the start of the year, we were aware from the start of our strength and we’re happy to have pulled this off today. The club, the Coach and his staff, all my teammates, everyone behind the scenes, we all believed in this and this is a well-deserved prize." 

"From next year, we’ll certainly look to improve because we can’t go through the highs and lows of this season again. Only that way can we fight to achieve something more. My future? I already said last week that I only think well of Inter and everyone knows what my thoughts are. We’ll speak with the club as we do every year but I’m the biggest Inter fan and I’m really happy here, my family is doing well in Milan. My aim was to reach the Champions League and we’ll go again from that. I’ve also had work done to my house, if that’s not a sign then what is! When it’s ready, we’ll have a barbecue with everyone to celebrate."

"I’m happy to have been top scorer but the best thing is that these goals helped to bring us back to the Champions League. Everyone has faith in me and when I stood at the spot, I thought about my teammates and the responsibility that they give me each day when I wear the captain’s armband and represent Inter. To play like we did today with heart and grit is one of the most wonderful things."
