MILAN – Honorary president Massimo Moratti paid homage to Javier Zanetti during the post-match celebrations for the captain held in the centre of the pitch after Inter v Lazio.

"I have the privilege and the pleasure of hailing our magnificent captain, who from his very first day at the club has always honoured the shirt and made us feel proud to be Interisti. We won a lot with him, we won everything, but I think someone with his professionalism and his heart deserves all of this. He deserves our love and he deserves to be remembered forever."
