Inter Milan 1, AC Milan 0
Inter Milan reached its first Champions League final in more than a decade with a 1-0 victory against city rival AC Milan yesterday [Macau time].
Inter had a 2-0 lead from the first leg of the semifinal and Lautaro Martinezs 74th-minute goal ended any hopes for Milan to stage a comeback.
Several players from both teams fell to the ground in tears at the final whistle as the Nerazzurri won the so-called Euroderby 3-0 on aggregate to progress to its first final since it won the league, Italian Cup and Champions League under Jos Mourinho in 2010.
Inter players and staff celebrated for long afterwards with their fans, singing and dancing in front of the Curva Nord packed full of Nerazzurri supporters in an electric atmosphere at San Siro the stadium that both teams share.
Its obviously a great emotion, a dream that I had together with the guys, that we nurtured right from when the draw was made, Inter coach Stefano Inzaghi said. We had to believe in ourselves and we have got here by merit, no one has gifted us anything.
We had a long road, with difficulties but I think we earned it. I think probably from tomorrow well realize more what we have done. But its a wonderful night with the fans, with our family, you cant ask for anything more.
Inter will face either 14-time champion Real Madrid or another juggernaut in Manchester City on June 10 in Istanbul.
Whoever we end up with, we will be unlucky, because they are two really great teams with incredible quality, Inzaghi said with a wry smile. I will watch tomorrows match, like I watched the first leg. Obviously we will follow it closely.
For Milan, the lengthy wait goes on. It last reached the showpiece event in 2007, when it won the last of its seven titles.
At the moment theres only disappointment, theres only disappointment because we could have been in a Champions League final, Milan coach Stefano Pioli said. But if we think that last year we went out in the group stage and this year we managed to reach the semifinals we can and should be proud.
But its clear we dreamt of reaching the final, we wanted the final, we wanted to beat our rivals.
Milan was able to welcome back Rafael Leo. He missed last weeks loss with a thigh injury and the Rossoneri were hoping his comeback would inspire the team to do the same.
The difference was immediately apparent as Milan played with an intensity it sorely lacked in the first leg amid a frantic start from both teams. DANIELLA MATAR, MILAN, MDT/AP
