San Siro rose up, vibrated, trembled in the rain and the wind, but the Inter did not give in. In a quarter-return quarter-final, the Nerazzurri snatched a 2-2 draw against Bayern Munich, sufficient to win their ticket for the last square in the Champions League. A qualification full of character, torn in pain, facing a technically dominant but too feverish Bavarian team in the truth areas.
Kane strikes, the Inter answers in stride
As in the outward journey, Bayern took control of the game. More than 65 % possession, well -oiled circuits, an intense pressing … and a logical goal in the 52nd minute: Harry Kane, forgotten in the second post, punished an too lax Italian defense on action. But the Inter, stung up, reacted with the pride of an injured giant. Barely six minutes later, Lautaro Martinez equalized on a corner, before Benjamin Pavard exploded San Siro in the 61st, also on a stopped kick. In two claws, the Italians overturned the scoring.
Bayern, back to the wall, did not abdicate. A quarter of an hour from the term, Eric Dier appeared on a corner to place an unstoppable head. 2-2, and again a goal of the qualification to score for the Bavarians. But despite the repeated assaults, despite the attempted olise or the breakthroughs of Alphonso Davies, Sommer and his defense held. A wall, cold and compact, as Milan knows how to train them.
Inter offers itself a remake
At the end of a tense double confrontation, often unbalanced on the technical level, Inter made its resilience speak. Failing to dominate, she struck at the right time, on her rare highlights. And she offers herself a dream semi-final against FC Barcelona. A shock that will remind tifosi the great hours of the 2010 triplet. This time again, it will be necessary to suffer. But Inter proven that she knew how to do.
