In the 1/8 final of the Club World Cup, Inter Milan will face Fruminense. Inter Milan striker Sebastiano Esposito was interviewed before the game.

How are your physical and mental states? From Seattle to Charlotte, the weather is significantly different

Yes, it's much cooler when it's in Seattle, but we have to adapt. As the coach said, we just need to focus on playing tomorrow's game because it's a very important game for us.

How is it like participating in this Club World Cup with your younger brother Pio?

Maybe we haven't really realized what we're going through, as he said in his last interview, we might wait until a few years before we remember it again. It's a wonderful emotion to play football together and see him happy. He played a great game, but he had to keep it up, everything in football is fast and people will soon forget. But on a personal level, it was very beautiful, we didn't expect it to be here, it was a dream.

Are you excited to play with Lautaro?

There are a lot of champions here, which is a dream for us. Wearing this jersey is an honor, we play football with the champions: Lautaro, Turam Jr....I don't want to say all the names one by one, because I might miss anyone.

Inter Milan has the opportunity to advance to the quarterfinals of the Club World Cup. What results do you hope to achieve in the end? Will your big brother Salvatore pay for your vacation?

I'm afraid the situation is just the opposite, we have to pay for him. We hope to go back as late as possible and it is very important to advance to the next round, which is a world-class event.

After the Club World Cup, how will you decide whether you will stay or not this summer?

Now I'm here, I want to play well with my team, and it's the team I dream of. As for the future, we will see what will happen next.

The last match against Riverbed was very difficult, what are the benefits of participating in such a match?

It's really great to participate in this kind of competition. We are playing against teams from other continents and they play different types of football. It was a new experience for me and it was really great.
