After scoring a hat-trick in the second round of the Champions League group stage, helping Club Brugge secure a 4-3 away victory over Inter Milan, Tresoldi was interviewed by Sky Sport Italia.

Nicolò, tonight you're experiencing a personal "derby." Nicolò, good evening! Warmest congratulations from everyone here in the studio. You may not realize it, but you're only the second player in Champions League history to score a hat-trick against Inter, with Gareth Bale being the first. Now, I'll hand the microphone over to our guests here at San Siro!I just explained to him that Capello and Boban are in the studio, and as we all know, he's been a devoted AC Milan fan since childhood. How does it feel to be facing two legendary figures in AC Milan's history?

I'm a bit nervous right now, even more nervous than when I was playing on the pitch (laughs)! No, this is truly a crazy night, some feelings just can't be described. I've dreamed of a night like this many times, but to score a hat-trick at San Siro, lead my team to victory here, and have all my family and friends in the stands today – it's truly amazing, fantastic!

You know, you always say you love Club Brugge, and you're having a wonderful season there, but you also always say you love AC Milan. Starting today, a great many AC Milan fans will know you very well!

Yes, before the match started, I received many messages from AC Milan fans, encouraging me, asking me to score today and win the match. So, first of all, I'm happy for Club Brugge, for our fans, and for Belgian football overall. Of course, for me personally, this is more or less like a derby; the feeling is truly special and very exciting.

Also, I should remind you that someone from the Italian Football Federation is here tonight, and they probably won't let you leave this stadium until you give them a clear commitment!

That's a whole other big topic. There's a lot of discussion and many rumors circulating, some of which may not even be true. I know what I've said; I've stated it many times. I'm currently very happy with the path I'm on with Germany's U21 national team. As for the future, let's wait and see.

In any case, right now I'm just a player for Club Brugge in the Belgian league. Both in Germany and Italy, there are many great strikers who have proven themselves and are far better than me. So I hope that after tonight, I can have a bit more confidence in myself and my abilities, but for the future, we'll see.

Of course! By the way, the national team will play at San Siro on November 12. I'm curious whether this hat-trick is some kind of omen? But let's talk about the national team later. Nicolò, as you just said, you're an AC Milan fan, and now Mr. Capello and Mr. Boban are here in our studio. I need to give them time to offer their congratulations and share their thoughts with you. Let's start with Coach Capello. Coach, what would you like to say to him?

Guest Fabio Capello:Nicolò, congratulations on a brilliant performance, but what I'm most curious about is: what were your concerns about Inter before the match? How did you prepare for it? And how did your coach set up the tactics? I'm very curious about that...

First of all, thank you very much for your kind words! As for match preparation, we knew that Inter is probably the strongest team in Italy right now, and one of the top teams in the world. So our strategy was to press high and not give them time to breathe, because we know that if we play passively on defense, that's exactly what they want – they have very strong technical ability in midfield. Therefore, we tried to press high and take advantage of any mistakes they might make.

Of course, we also had to be very clinical and efficient in front of goal. But I think we also enjoyed playing football on the pitch today, controlling much of the possession. We're a very young team, and our coach's instructions to us were very simple: don't be afraid, be brave with man-to-man marking, and capitalize on every mistake they make.

Guest Zvonimir Boban:Yes, congratulations! To see a spectacle like this is beautiful for all of us, not just for you personally. This is a dream come true, truly heartfelt congratulations! What we saw during the match, especially in the second half, was that there seemed to be a difference in the pace of play between the two teams. I'm curious about your personal experience on the pitch? You seemed to break free from defenders at will, always one step quicker and one step ahead of your opponents, creating many chances. How did it feel out there? Was it surprising for you to almost dominate Inter like this, or did it happen naturally, and you only realized it on the pitch and made it happen?

Thank you very much! But not exactly like that; we knew we have many young players in our squad, and everyone ran very fast and covered a lot of ground. Of course, we also had a bit of luck taking the lead and converting our chances. Then we did have some luck – for example, they hit the crossbar and missed a few scoring opportunities. But clearly, the momentum of the game gradually turned in our favor.

After that, you could see our whole team playing very fast and smoothly, running actively, and everyone enjoying it. Especially in the second half, I think we played a very good match. Look at our fourth goal – a long pass from midfield created a one-on-one situation between our striker and their goalkeeper, with no Inter defender able to catch up. I think this clearly shows that we were superior to Inter physically and in terms of performance, so this was a perfect night.

We'll let you go, but what's stopping you from saying "yes" to Italy's national team right now? You said you know what you said – can you tell us a bit more?Or just lie to us and say "yes" (laughs)!

No, I've already spoken with everyone I needed to speak with. I've spoken with Klopp, Coach Mancini, and both the German and Italian Football Federations, and I've explained my thinking to them. They all understand.

The important thing is that they understand, and then you just put on an Italy jersey!

I grew up in Italy, and Italian is always spoken at home, so... we'll see. As I said, I'm happy playing for Club Brugge right now, and I'm also happy with Germany's U21 national team. We still have the U21 European Championship that we want to win – we lost in the final two years ago, and my father won the U21 European Championship with Italy, so that's also a goal for me, a trophy I really want to win. So, for the future, we'll see.
