7-6! Serie A s only seedlings have been crazy, reaching the final twice in three years, eliminating the favorites to win the championship, and counting the path to advance

With the end of the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Inter Milan narrowly entered the Champions League final this season. In the two-round semi-finals with Barcelona, ​​Inter Milan played a wonderful performance. The ultimate offensive and defensive battle between the two teams can be regarded as the most exciting semi-final in Champions League history. Inter Milan, currently ranked second in the world, reached the Champions League final with a total score of 7-6 after achieving a Jedi counterattack at home. This is also the two finals that the Nerazzurri reached in three years. Let’s take a look at the way Inter Milan advances to the finals today.

1. In 8 games and 6 wins in the league stage, Inter Milan lost only 1 goal

Inter Milan performed very well in the league stage. Although after 8 games, they were only ranked fourth in the league stage, Inter Milan, with 6 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, performed very well in the defense line. Inter Milan, who scored 11 goals in 8 games, only one goal was to concede. During this period, he defeated Arsenal, Leipzig and other teams in a row, only drew with Manchester City in his first game and lost to Bundesliga powerhouse Leverkusen away. This loss was also the only goal conceded in the Inter League stage. In the other seven games, Inter Milan scored a clean sheet, which shows its terrifying defensive strength. After the league stage, Inter Milan, ranked fourth, directly advanced to the knockout stage. With Serie A teams such as Milan and Juventus failing in the knockout stage play-offs, Inter Milan has also become the only Serie A seed in the knockout stage. However, Inter Milan, who is fighting alone, performed very well in the knockout stage, and eliminated two powerful enemies, Bayern and Barcelona.

2. After successively eliminating the favorites to win the championship, Inter Milan successfully reached the finals

After successfully passing the test of the league stage, Inter Milan encountered the play-off elimination of AC Milan in the Champions League quarter-finals. In the first leg, Lautaro and Toulam Jr. helped Inter Milan score a goal and defeated their opponent 2-0 away. Back at Meacha Stadium, Inter Milan still maintained a strong momentum. With a 2-0 lead in the first leg, Inter Milan won 2-1 again in the second leg. The total score was 4-1 and eliminated the opponent and advanced to the Champions League quarterfinals. Inter Milan encountered Bayern in the quarter-finals, and this old rival had a great grudge in the Champions League. Inter Milan won the Champions League championship in the 2009-10 season. They defeated Bayern in the final and became the first triple-champion team in Italian football. When the two teams met, Bayern, who was troubled by injuries, was slightly inferior to Inter Milan in terms of momentum. In the first leg at Allianz Stadium, Inter Milan won 2-1 and took the lead. Although Bayern fought back hard in the second leg and even equalized the total score for a while, in the end, he was still unable to make a comeback in the second leg. In the end, he was eliminated by Inter Milan with a total score of 4-3, and the Nerazzurri successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

Before the semi-finals, Inter Milan's semi-final opponent Barcelona has always been the biggest favorite in the Champions League championship. Barcelona, ​​which has players such as Lewandowski and Yamal, also proved the team's terrifying strength with their performance in the game. Barcelona played at home in the first leg, Inter Milan scored at the beginning of the game and led two goals in 20 minutes. Then Yamal's god came to earth to narrow the score difference, and Ferran Torres equalized the score. In the first leg, the two teams tied a 3-3 draw, which is also the first time that a team scored 3 goals against Inter Milan in a single game. The second leg was still exciting. Inter Milan first led by two goals, and then Barcelona chased three goals in the second half, almost achieving a reversal. However, Inter Milan's tied goal in the last moment brought the two teams into overtime. Flatesi scored in overtime, helping Inter Milan surpass the score again. The final two rounds of exciting competition ended with Inter Milan winning 7-6, and the Nerazzurri was able to successfully reach the Champions League final of this season.

3. It reached the Champions League final twice in three years. Inter Milan reached the fourth championship last time. It happened in the 2022-23 Champions League. In the Champions League match, Inter Milan defeated Porto, Benfica and his city rival Milan in the knockout round and successfully reached the final. In the final against Manchester City, Rodri won the game with one blow, helping Manchester City beat Inter 1-0. The Nerazzurri watched Manchester City's new king ascend the throne, while Inter Milan missed the fourth Champions League in the history of the team. Inter Milan made a comeback after two seasons. It has been 15 years since they won the last Champions League Cup. After experiencing a final defeat with Manchester City, the Nerazzurri, which has entered the Champions League final this time, has become stronger. They will quietly wait for the emergence of their final opponents and usher in the 7th Champions League final journey in team history on June 1, when they will once again attack the team's fourth Champions League championship trophy.

Inter Milan's final opponent is about to emerge. In the semi-final match between Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain won 1-0 away. The only difference of one goal gives both teams a chance to advance to the final, but whoever advances to the Champions League final is a tough opponent for Inter Milan. After all, compared with Inter Milan, which has three Champions League games, Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal, who have not won the Champions League so far, are eager for this championship. Another final team will be produced tonight.
