AC Milan forward Giampaolo Pazzini has spoken of his delight after scoring during his side's 2-1 win against Cagliari at the weekend.
The 29-year-old, who came off the bench to score his first goal in nine months for the Rossoneri, admits that it has given him a huge boost in confidence.
"I had been out previously for so long, I wanted to play for lost time, the goal on Sunday gives me that enthusiasm and morale," Pazzini told Tiki Taka. "I want to feel good and to take full satisfaction, for me and for the team.
"The goals are what a striker is all about, the feelings are why we are attacking players. When it happens, we are much happier."
Pazzini joined Milan from their city rivals Inter Milan in August 2012.
