Inter Milan captain Lautaro happy for matchwinner Arnautovic

Inter Milan captain Lautaro Martinez was happy for matchwinner Marko Arnautovic after their Champions League win against Atletico Madrid.

Inter took control of the round 16 tie with the first-leg triumph.

"It was a fundamental match for us this evening, we needed to get a positive result. I think we could've scored more goals, but it is important to have a lead," Lautaro told Sky Italia.

“Marko is a very experienced player with a great career, I am the captain and just reassured him. I too have had moments like this, I know it is not easy, but all the hard work he did in training paid off.

“I try to adapt to my strike partner, as I have changed many teammates over the years at Inter, but I try to learn from them all and get along with everyone."
