Inter Milan fullback Gosens: Passion of fans here has amazed me

Inter Milan fullback Robin Gosens admits he's been amazed by the club's support.

Gosens joined Inter in January from Atalanta.

He recalled: "The most moving stadium experience for me was the Derby della Madonnina, when Inter-Milan was played in a San Siro that was sold out for the first time since the start of the pandemic.

“It was the return semi-final of the Coppa Italia, and when we took the bus to the stadium, it was almost impossible to get through because the fans had literally blocked the road.

“That's when I started to understand what the derby meant to them. But when I went outside to warm up, I was completely speechless: I saw something I had never experienced before.

“San Siro may be old, but I would say that there are few stadiums that can create such a special atmosphere on a day like this. When 80,000 very excited Italian fans push you forward, you think you can move mountains on the pitch."
