Key quotes after Inter Milan beat city rivals AC Milan 2-0 in the first leg of their Champions League semifinal at the San Siro on Wednesday:
"It feels very good, especially because it's a derby. We played away on paper. It's a great result for us. Sometimes you get in this difficult moment where the ball doesn't want to go in. Patience and work always pays off. I was calm knowing the goals would come as always. Today is the proof."
– Inter striker Edin Dzeko, who scored the opening goal against Milan after netting for the first time since January 18 at the weekend
"It's not finished, it will be another battle (in the second leg). It would have been good to score more goals, we had the chances to do so, but we still have to be happy with these two goals."
– Henrikh Mkhitaryan, the scorer of Inter's second goal
