Quarter -final of the Champions League – Inter Milan eliminates Bayern Munich after a draw (2-2) and a goal from Benjamin Pavard

Inter treated until the end. As expected, the quarter-final return of the Champions League between Bayern Munich and Inter Milan, disputed in a Sano heckled by gusts and showers, was undecided (2-2). While the Bavarians had managed to open the scoring, the Nerazzurri had a period of fire to resume the ascendant and definitively take over. It was without counting the burst of the Germans, who equalized and could have torn the extensions in the last moments. Inter pass thanks to his victory on the outward journey and will challenge FC Barcelona in the last square.

You had to get the neck and invoke the greatest minds to guess the outcome of this double confrontation between Inter Milan and Bayern Munich. The Nerazzurri had taken a small option by winning at the Allianz Arena on the smallest of the margins on the outward journey. But the Bavarians came to San Siro well to reply. The first period was logically closed and hung. The two teams went to blow. Marcus Thuram (29th) and Hakan çalhanoglu (33rd) could have opened the scoring, just like Thomas Müller and Leroy Sané (36th).

However, it was not until the second act to see the intensity climbing a notch, while the playing conditions were more and more chaotic because of the weather. Harry Kane, whom we had seen very little before the break, came out of his box to enroll Federico Dimarco and light Yann Sommer (0-1, 52nd). We then felt Bayern Munich in full power, better returned from the locker room and ready to overthrow everything. But you really have to be wary of Inter Milan, capable of igniting a meeting in a few minutes. What she did thanks to Lautaro Martinez, a true poison who managed to equalize at the reception of a corner (1-1, 58th).

In the process, the Italian club was another Savior in the person of Benjamin Pavard, imperial in defense and decisive, in turn, at the reception of a corner (2-1, 61st). This second goal by the Nerarruzzi looked like an uppercut to put Ko. The Bavarians, who had a large period of floating and had to deal with a San Siro in boiling. They nevertheless found resources to get up when Eric Dier, in success, transformed a recovery (2-2, 76th).

The boxing match, where each team won rounds in turn, was not yet completely finished. And the last minutes have indeed been Bavarian, when the Italians had almost no more juice in the legs, by dint of undergoing opposing domination. The Inter Bloc broken but did not fold, even if it took little in the final seconds. Müller, in particular, had a 3-2 ball (90th+5). Serie A leader had never conceded two goals in the same Champions League match this season. Here he is in the semi-finals against FC Barcelona. Bayern Munich had a great story to live with a possible final disputed at home, but has encountered Italian coldness.
