This season’s Champions League final will be Manchester C v Inter

　The Champions League (CL) semi-final second legs were played on 16 and 17 May, with the two teams advancing to this season’s CL final.

On 16 May, the ‘Milan derby’ between Inter (Italy) and Milan (Italy) took place. After winning the first leg 2-0 thanks to goals from Edin Džeko and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Inter showed their consistency in the second leg. After a scoreless 74th minute, Lautaro Martinez took a pass from Romelu Lukaku and twisted in a left-foot shot. The 90 minutes came to an end, with Inter holding Milan without conceding a goal in the two matches to secure their ticket to the final with a 3-0 aggregate score.

On 17 May, Manchester C (England) hosted Real Madrid (Spain). The first leg had ended 1-1 after a ‘golasso’ from Vinicius Junior and Kevin De Bryne and players from both teams, but in the second leg Manchester C dominated from the outset. Manchester C dominated from the start. After being forced into a big save by Thibaut Courtois in the early stages, Bernardo Silva broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute after a brilliant break down the right flank, before B. Silva headed home a spill in the 37th minute to extend the lead, before adding two more goals in the second half through an own goal and Julian Alvarez. Manchester C, who played a perfect game with their impressive attacking power, reached the final for the first time in two seasons with a total score of 5-1.

As a result, this season’s CL final is now set to be played between Manchester C and Inter. Manchester C, who have the potential to win the Premier League, FA Cup and CL treble this season, will be aiming to win the CL for the first time in the club’s history. Inter Milan, meanwhile, are aiming for their first CL title since the 2009-10 season. Inter are aiming for their first European crown in 13 seasons, since Jose Mourinho’s (now Roma) first treble-winning season with the Italians.

This will be the first meeting between the two sides in official competition. It will be the first English v Italian final in 16 seasons, since the 2006-07 season when Milan beat Liverpool 2-1. The match will be played on 10 June at the Ataturk Olimpiyat Stadu in Istanbul, Turkey.
