Inter Closes Out Milan in Italian UCL Clash; Goes for 4th European Crown Against Winner of Man. City & Real Madrid

Half of the Champions League final is set after Tuesday’s all-Italy clash between Inter and AC Milan. Inter entered Leg 2 with a two-goal advantage and parked the bus for much of the second leg to put the pressure on their crosstown rivals. A late goal by Lautaro Martinez (74’) put the nail in the coffin for a 3-0 aggregate win and a double-match shutout. Inter will be vying for their fourth-ever Champions League title against the winner of today’s match between Manchester City and Real Madrid. The club’s last European crown came in 2010. It’s the first time they’ve reached the final round since then (13 years).
