“I won't deny that I didn't sleep last night, I thought about this evening and I couldn't have dreamed it in a better way”. The first words uttered by the 17-year-old Nerazzurri striker were full of emotion. Sebastiano esposito after the match against Genoa that saw him make his debut as a starter and score his first goal in Serie A. “I just saw my mother and I was moved, the goal is for her. I thank the club and my family who are always close to me – he told Sky Sport -. I hope to continue like this. I am reaping the fruits of my work, of the many sandwiches I ate before training… but there is still a lot of work to do”. “The penalty that Lukaku left me? He is a fantastic person, as well as being an extraordinary player – concluded Esposito -. He told me to go for the ball with conviction and score”. “I saw Esposito grow up, I found him in retreat and even in his face he was a boy… He is a smart boy, he will have a future”. This is how Antonio Conte spoke about the 17-year-old striker who made his debut as a starter, scoring his first goal in Serie A. “He has a family that will keep him on the right track,” the Inter coach told Sky, “and I’ll think about it too… I’m happy for him, as I am for all the lads.” Conte praised the team “that in times of difficulty took on responsibility, I think of those players who had played very little and were called up when the others were injured. And this confirms that our strong point is work.”
