Lautaro Martinez has not allowed that scare him however, as he says the belief in the team is similar to that in the Argentine squad that lifted the World Cup, which gives him confidence going into the final against Manchester City.
He said, “I know that sometimes you believe and sometimes you don’t. On international duty, many things happened before we won the World Cup.
“We’ve got to believe, to be ourselves and face City with courage, because they too ought to be worried about facing us.”
Inter have already overcome Porto, Benfica and AC Milan on their way to the final, and although they face their toughest test yet, Lautaro Martinez appears confident that they can scale the final hurdle.
