MILAN – Inter Milan footballers, together with the Slovak defender Milan Škriniar, lost in the opening match of the eighth finals of the Champions League 2021/2022 on the home turf with FC Liverpool 0: 2.

Inter Milan has been waiting to take part in the elimination for 10 years and from the opening minutes he felt that he had a strong opponent against him, who knew how to threaten mainly from the standards. Sadio Mane almost managed to score another goal for Sadio Mane, coming from the right, but his header was tipped over for a corner by the visitors’ keeper. In two minutes, the home team also got their first chance, but Calhanoglu aimed only at the crossbar from a large angle. The new African champion Mane, even after the celebrations of the historic triumph of Senegal, proved to be in excellent shape and in the 23rd minute he almost took care of the goal of the month. However, his small lime export shears ended up in the side net only.

After the change of sides, he showed the effort to score Inter, which threatened from quick counterattacks. In the 53rd minute, Perišič was looking for a center in a good position Martinez, but he could not get the ball into the net. After an hour of play, he defeated goalkeeper Allison after a separate escape by Džeko, but the referees agreed that the representative of Bosnia and Herzegovina could not narrowly avoid the offside trap. Liverpool thus struck out of its strongest weapon, the standard situation. In the 75th minute, he headed exactly Firmino, when he was not guarded by Bastoni. Salah added the second goal after 83 minutes.
