Inter Milan v AS Roma Preview
Inter Milan player Javier Zanetti
“I’m proud to have reached this figure. A thousand games, all of which mean a lot to me. It’s a very important personal achievement. So far I have made 33 appearances with Talleres, which was my first club, 66 with Banfield, 12 with the Argentina Under-23 side, 140 with the senior side and 748 with Inter: 999 in total. If I play against Roma, I’ll make it to 1000, which is a huge milestone. I’ve always done everything in my career with passion. Football has given me a lot and I’ve tried to do my bit whenever I’ve been called upon. Reaching this figure is also significant because there aren’t many players who have done it, just nine, and I’ll be the tenth; they are all famous names so it makes me very proud to be among them.”
I have always acted on the pitch just like the person I am. I always try to be myself – that’s very important to me.” And it seems it is appreciated not only by Nerazzurri fans but also by supporters of other clubs: “It’s so nice to meet people who maybe aren’t Inter fans but who come up to pay me their compliments anyway. That is a great recognition.”
“Tomorrow is a big moment for us: a cup semi-final against an excellent team such as Roma. Hopefully we’ll be able to celebrate afterwards. Then… I want to continue: 1001, 1002 and so on, until the time comes for me to say enough is enough.”
Roma manager Vincenzo Montella
“Despite those absences, I truly believe it’s possible to beat Inter,” he said. “It’s going to be a difficult game but we will give our all to turn the tie around.’
