Inter Milan capable of beating Madrid or City

Inter Milan edged their rivals AC Milan 1-0 to reach the final of the UEFA Champions League.

A goal from Lautaro Martinez killed off the tie in San Siro to see Inter win 3-0 on aggregate on Tuesday.

“What counts is the squad. I experienced it at the World Cup (with Argentina),” Inter captain Martinez said after the game.

“It makes it easy if you have a united squad with everyone pulling in the same direction. It means you get to play these very important matches in the best possible way.”

The Inter Milan skipper said the experience of winning a World Cup helped

“After winning the World Cup and experiencing what is the pinnacle for a player I knew we could reach this final, and we did it,” Martinez added.

Players like Romelu Lukaku and Edin Džeko can do damage and City or Madrid will be aware of that.

Madrid have won 14 Champions League titles with five coming in the last 10 years.

City on the otherhand, have not won a Champions League and should they beat Madrid, they might fancy their chances(against Inter) this time around having lost a final to Chelsea twoyears ago.
