“We played a good match, I’m happy with everyone,” said Inter coach Simone Inzaghi. “The substitutes did well too.” Among those was Arnautovic, whom Inzaghi brought on in place of Marcus Thuram in the 67th minute. It was the first assignment in Inter-Dress for the Viennese since April 24, 2010.
During his first spell at Inter, Arnautovic only played three times in Serie A. “13 years ago I was more a fan than a player,” said the ÖFB record team player, who now wants to take the opportunity to win the title. “I came here to lift a trophy,” said the Viennese. “What an emotion to be back here,” he wrote on Instagram after his comeback at San Siro Stadium.
