Both teams had last met in the 2023 Champions League final, where Pep Guardiola’s side eventually won thanks to a Rodri late-minute goal.

However it was a close fight, Inter Milan had their opportunities to punish City, especially from Thuram, and Lautaro Martinez, but they couldn’t convert. Man City also could have made two wins out of two encounters, but Yan Sommer denied Grealish, Gundogan, and Foden. In the end, both teams had to settle for a draw.
Simone Inzaghi’s Views
The Italian spoke about the game he believed his team could have hurt the Premier League Champions, but they lacked the clinical edge in the final third. Inzaghi said: “The players did well, we knew the quality of our opponents, but we worked well and could have hurt them more in some situations, In the final third we need to show skill and technique, which we do have in the squad. Against these sides like Manchester City and Real Madrid, you always seem like you might be able to score a goal, but then they manage to rescue it.”
Calhanoglu on the game
Calhanoglu also spoke about the game revealing that the team wasn’t intimidated by the 2023 final loss, and they were ready to put up a good fight, in which they did. He also claimed they enjoyed themselves and they are ready to compete against anyone.
Calhanoglu said: “We wanted to show that we are not scared to play here. We play football the way they do, and with sacrifice, we showed that we can also play football, We enjoyed ourselves against a very strong team and could also have won, but with the right courage and spirit of sacrifice, we proved that we can compete against anyone.”
