Çalhanoğlu spoke about his goal against Barca, his team’s mentality and approach, Lukaku’s advice, and giving their all against Barcelona in his pre-match press conference.
Çalhanoğlu on Lukaku’s advice:
“Before the game against Barça, Lukaku came to me and told me that when I shoot I should try to shoot on the right, where Ter Stegen is a bit weaker. Onana also told me that. Before my shot, I immediately thought about those words and I was quick, so I scored.”
Çalhanoğlu on today’s match:
“On Wednesday, Barcelona will be really angry. They will have fire in them and we know it will be difficult, but we will give it all.”
Çalhanoğlu on his team’s mentality:
“Before the match against Barcelona we were already mentally prepared, because we knew they are strong, they have important players. We ran more, with desire, with courage, with heart.”
Çalhanoğlu on Inter’s performance in the reverse fixture:
“If we play the way we played in the last game against Barcelona I don’t think many teams will have a chance to win against us.”
