Fratteni hit a 99th minute extra time winner to send Inter in total to the last 7-6.
“I was lucky to see the game, because I was so many fourth that I was dizzy and almost had a blackout! I have to thank the physios, because yesterday I had a belly tension, so they worked incredibly to make me suitable for this game,” Fratteni told Sky Italia.
“It's just incredible, I don't know what to say. I thought I could not repeat that emotion after the game of Bayern Munich, but it was even more incredible tonight. This is the beauty of football.”
“My reward for effort and dedication”
Fratteni also said: “This was really my career. I was not blessed with incredible talent, but I am the last one to give up and the first to believe, so this is a reward for effort and dedication.
“I couldn't believe it, but once we were 3-3, I said that Marcus (Thuram) is not worried, we'll continue.
“I was exhausted even before I came from the couch, while we got up and constantly shouted, with hands in our hair at every movement, so we played practically with them!”
