Follow the build-up and action as it happens from tonight’s Champions League clash between Inter and Liverpool.
The Nerazzurri will play the first game in the Champions League Round of 16 in the last ten years. Simone Inzaghi’s side qualified to the knock-out phases after finishing second in their group behind Real Madrid.
The Serie A champions are without the injured Robin Gosens, Matias Vecino and Joaquin Correa, while Nicolò Barella is suspended. Arturo Vidal will replace the Italy international.
However, Alessandro Bastoni returns to action after recovering from an ankle injury and Latuaro Martinez is expected to get the nod and partner Edin Dzeko in the Nerazzurri attack. The former Roma striker will be looking for his fourth consecutive goal against the Reds.
He will reunite for 90 minutes with his former Roma teammate Mohamed Salah who will play his 50th Champions League match with the Reds tonight.
Follow all the latest news from Milan ahead of tonight’s kick-off.
Hard to see Inter going through but stranger things have happened. Look at Liverpool’s CL win in 2005. If that squad can win a CL, any squad can.
Can Inter repeat history? If only Barella were not suspended.
WHATEVER THE RESULT MAYBE, I AM HERE TO RAGE
Same old story with serie a teams why even bother playing this competition they won’t win this trophy for another century
@Mike..You clearly don’t know anything aboit calcio. Ues Intrr lost to liverpool tosay but to say it will take 100 years for a Serie A tema to win the CL is just plain ignorant.
Now Klop knows Inter will go on all out attack from the first minute and they have shown that they can attack unlike what many Liverpool supporters thought it’ll be. The important thing for Inter is to get a good perfomance again and focus on the leagues with only Juve as the potential side that can try to take points away in the remaining matches. I actually don’t think Inter would’ve played any different if they faced Bayern, Man City or PSG but also they would lose between the two matches because the level of quality is just very different.
BOB,mike was right,with this performance,it will take more than a century before an Italian team win ucl again,and french league will overtake Seria a soon,the way Italian teams collapse when they play against English teams is magical, hope you saw what Chelsea did to juv, leverpool acmilan,asroma Atlanta.
Dzeco, bastoni,Martinez there wages for this week should be suspended,base on there performance tonight they don’t deserve to be paid
Just as Alexis is hitting his stride, Inzaghi dosent use him. Lautaro is not playing anything, and Alexis has been kiling it, except for the fact that Inzaghi cuts his wings. Then the media critisizes Alexis for not scroing in the 15 minute window he gets to play. If Alexis would have come in from the start i`m confident Inter would have had a diferent result. Not just because he scores but also because he complicates his rivals and creates great oportunities where Laurtaro just waits for his chance. and lately without results. Ridiculous.
