Lautaro Martinez scored for Inter in their 2-1 win vs. Verona.

Martinez managed his sixth goal of the season to keep Inter in second spot in the league. The Argentine scored from close range, a great shot to beat the goalkeeper to give Inter the 1-0 lead. Lautaro spoke to Inter TV after the match. Here’s what he had to say:

“I’m here to win something with this Club. We work every day to show that we can stay at the front, but there are tough matches and we always need to give more. Today, we did well and got the win. My relationship with Lukaku? He’s a good guy, since his first day here we’ve always spoke and got on.

“For a striker, scoring goals is key and we live to score. To break the deadlock meant that this goal was even more important, but I’m happy when Inter win and I want to help the team. I dedicate the goal to my family, who have joined me for the holidays. I wish all the fans and all of the staff all the best during the holiday season.”
