Inter Milan attacker Ezequiel Schelotto has revealed his derby equaliser sent him into tears.

The Rossoneri dominated the first half and were 1-0 up through Stephan El Shaarawy, but Samir Handanovic's heroics kept Inter in the game until Schelotto secured a 1-1 result.

"It is a dream, I will never be able to forget this huge emotion I am feeling," Schelotto told Sky Sport Italia.

"I want to dedicate it to my family, who were all here tonight to watch me, and to the President and the staff.

"I did shed a tear, as to mark my debut Derby like this was remarkable and I thought back to everything I went through over the last few months.

"It is a very important goal and the draw is a little harsh on us, as we had the chances to win this. At half-time Coach Andrea Stramaccioni told us to bring out our grit, determination and rage.

"Now we have to continue like this, as there are many games to the end of the season."
