Frattesi After His Goal Against Bayern Munich: My Grandmother Helped Me from Heaven

Italian star Davide Frattesi scored a last-minute goal that led Inter Milan to a valuable victory over Bayern Munich with a score of 2-1 in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, but it wasn't just any goal; it carried an emotional human message, as Frattesi dedicated it to his late grandmother.

Frattesi said: "I always thought my mental strength was my greatest weapon, and that nothing could affect me."

He added: "But when I faced my grandmother's illness and her passing, I never imagined how difficult it would be. She was very close to my heart, and I wasn't used to seeing her in that state."

He continued: "I believe she was a part of the goal tonight, and I hope she was cheering for me from heaven."

Away from the emotional moment, Frattesi praised the team's performance against Bayern Munich, stating: "Despite the criticisms we received after the draw with Parma, which we understand, we are still competing on three fronts."

He added: "We are at the top of Serie A, we qualified for the Coppa Italia semi-finals, and today we achieved a significant victory in the Champions League against one of the strongest teams."

Regarding the upcoming second leg, Frattesi said: "Certainly Bayern Munich will start aggressively, and they will seek to equalize from the start. We need to be more effective in counter-attacks, and most importantly, we need to be decisive in the final touch."
