🏆👉  Inter ended the Champions League Quarterfinals Second Leg with a draw on Wednesday 19 April 2023 at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium in Milan, Italy.  The aggregate result is Inter 5 – 3 Benfica thanks to the 2-0 victory in Portugal in the first leg.  Inter reach the semi-finals of the European Cup/Champions League for the ninth time, and for the first time since 2009-10, when they won the trophy, under the management of José Mourinho. Simone Inzaghi could become the first Italian manager to take the Nerazzurri to the semi-finals of the competition, since Eugenio Bersellini in 1980-81.  Inter will play the Semifinals against AC Milan. It means on 10 June at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul there will be an Italian team playing in the UEFA Champions League final!

Note:  First Leg Result: Benfica 0- 2 Inter

Inter opened the score in the 14th minute. The goal by Nicolò Barella defeating Benfica goalkeeper Odisseas Vlachodimos with a left-footed shot to the top left corner. The assist is by Lautaro Martínez.

Benfica equalized for the 1-1 in the 38th minute. Fredrik Aursnes defeated Inter goalkeeper André Onana with a headed shot to the high center. The assist is by Rafa.

Inter took back the leadership in the 65th minute. Argentinean forward Lautaro Martínez scoring from very close range with a right footed shot to the high center. The assist is by Federico Dimarco.

Inter sealing the pass to the Semifinals in the 78th minute. Joaquín Correa scored with a right footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Federico Dimarco.

Benfica scored in the 86th minute. António Silva with a headed shot to the top left corner. The assist is by Alejandro Grimaldo

Petar Musa equalized for the 3-3 in the 95th minute with a left-footed shot to the center following a corner conceded by Danilo D’Ambrosio.

✅   Stats before the game:    Benfica have already beaten an Italian side away in the Champions League this season – 2-1 against Juventus in the group stage – after not winning any of their previous six games (D1 L5) away from home against these opponents: the last success dates back to the match against Fiorentina in the Cup Winners’ Cup in March 1997. Inter have hosted Benfica once so far: in a UEFA Cup round of 16 in March 2004, which the Nerazzurri won 4-3; on that occasion two shotguns were made: one by Obafemi Martins for the Lombards, the other by Nuno Gomes for the Portuguese. Benfica lost the first leg of a European Cup/Champions League knockout tie by a margin of at least two goals for the ninth time; only once before have the Portuguese progressed from this disadvantage, when they eliminated FC Nürnberg in the quarter-finals in 1961-62, despite losing the first leg 1-3 (win 6-0 in the return leg). Inter won the first leg of a European Cup/Champions League knockout tie with a margin of at least two goals for the ninth time; the nerazzurri were never eliminated when they faced the second leg from this advantage position. Benfica have not lost in seven away matches (W4 D3) in the Champions League: it is the longest ever run of consecutive away games without defeat by the Portuguese in the European Cup/Champions League. Furthermore, Benfica have won their last two games away from home and could go three times in a row away for the first time since March 1990.

🏆👉 Lineup Inter (3-5-2): Onana; Darmian, Acerbi, Bastoni; Dumfries, Barella, Brozovic, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco; Dzeko, Lautaro.

🏆👉  Lineup Benfica (4-2-3-1) Vlachodimos; Gilberto, Otamendi, António Silva, Grimaldo; Florentino, Chiquinho; Joao Mario, Rafa Silva, Aursnes; Gonçalo Ramos.
