Inter Milan captain Mauro Icardi's goal against Tottenham Hotspur has been named Champions League Goal of the Week.
After missing out on Champions League for the past six seasons, Inter have announced their return to the grandest stage of European football in emphatic style by coming back from behind to beat Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 in the opening week.
It is Inter captain Mauro Icardi's first Champions League game in his career, and he did not disappoint.
Inter were inspired by Icardi's moment of magic, the captain thundering a first-time volley into the bottom-left corner from 20 yards before Matias Vecino nodded in Stefan de Vrij's header from a corner in the second minute of stoppage time.

Icardi for me. Not only was it an important goal, it was an outrageous hit, and was gorgeous to watch. favourite kind of goals, when they absolutely smash it bottom bins. I rather that than it go in top corner, better aesthetic for me.

Fantastic Goal It was difficult to choose between Mariano and Icardi Goal. Icardi's goal was a volley and it was scored when Inter Milan was at very high pressure. As a captain he will be more pressurised and its good that even the Captain himself score the most important goal which changed the match result. Good Luck Inter. Congratulations Icardi
