Marko Arnautovic

Inter striker Marko Arnautovic is pleased to have finally showed the Nerazzurri supporters his true colours, as he hit his first two goals for the Italian champions in a 2-1 defeat of Liechtenstein side Vaduz yesterday.

“I am happy,” he admitted to Sportmediaset after the encounter.

“It went so much better compared to the two previous games during which I had not played well.

“I have worked hard since last summer and today I have reaped the fruits of my work.

“But if things went smoother, the whole team deserves credit. I am delighted. It was a friendly match, but it was nonetheless tough and we were very determined.”

Arnautovic joined Inter from Dutch side Twente last summer after a lengthy transfer saga due to the 20-year-old’s injury problems following a stress fracture to his foot.

The Austrian international is on loan at the San Siro and there were reports coach Jose Mourinho had warned against making the move permanent after a string of sub-par displays in friendly tests. Arnautovic has yet to make an official appearance for the Beneamata.
