Inter Milan midfielder Joao Mario says preseason results are important.
Inter meet Schalke in China on Friday.
“Preseason is going well. There's a different climate in China, but we want to start our [ICC] campaign well and do the things that the Coach has asked of us," the midfielder told Inter Channel.
“We're starting with a new Coach and we must learn quickly. Spalletti's made a good impression, we hope we can do well with us just like he did with Roma. We have the quality, now we have to show it."
