Inter 3-0 Milan Goals: Martínez (4th, 40th) and Gosens (82nd) Above the Laut’. Inter reached the Italian Cup final on Tuesday, a first since 2011, by slapping the AC Milan (3-0). Lautaro Martínez played a leading role in the qualification by slamming a brace. First shot, first goal: the Argentinian fired a powerful shot that Mike Maignan was able to hit, but not repel (4th). He did it again by subtly sliding the ball over the French goalkeeper, on a pass inspired by Joaquín Correa (40th). Samir Handanovič also ensured his part of the job by opposing Rafael Leão (28th) and Alexis Saelemaekers (30th).
The Rossoneri lacked success in the last gesture, since Franck Kessié shot in the small net (12th) and the frame was largely stolen for Sandro Tonali (32nd). Ismaël Bennacer found the net with a close shot from the left, but the goal was disallowed for offside after long minutes of hesitation (66th). Robin Gosens definitely pushed the rival on a pass from Marcelo Brozović, taking over Pierre Kalulu (82nd). After the 0-0 first leg draw, the Nerazzurri will face either Juve or Fiorentina in the Coppa final on May 11. A slap that may also give them an ascendancy in the league…
