Marko Arnautovic reveals his emotional state after failing to capitalize on two clear scoring opportunities against Atletico Madrid, expressing that the support from his Inter teammates and fans was pivotal in boosting his morale. He recounts the challenging moment when he replaced the injured Marcus Thuram at halftime, finding it difficult to convert chances into goals.

Reflecting on the match, Arnautovic described his goal as one of the most significant of his career.

In a post-match interview with Sky Sport Italia following the first leg of the Champions League Round of 16 tie, Arnautovic admitted the difficulty he faced in returning from injury and the pressure to score goals. However, he expressed gratitude for the unwavering support he received from both fans and teammates during his challenging moments. He emphasized that their encouragement provided him with the necessary motivation to secure the crucial goal.
