In an eventful game, Inter started out in front right from the start! Three minutes into the ball, after an exchange of passes at the edge of the area, Barella played for Darmian, who raised it at the penalty spot, just as Lautaro Martínez, who arrived filling his foot, in a volley without jumping, to stew Maignan’s net and open the score to Inter: 1-0!
At 11, Salemaekers played for Kessié at the edge of the area, who risked the hit, but sent the net from the outside. Then, at 27, Darmian lost the ball in midfield, Milan went on the counterattack, Rafael Leão received it on the left wing, cut the marking and risked the finalization, but stopped in defense of Handanovic. Milan started to grow in the match!
But at the end of the first half, another goal came from the Argentine! In the 39th minute, after Milan’s attack, Inter launched a fast counterattack. Brozovic made a great shot for Correa from the left side. The Argentine dominated and gave a beautiful deep pass to Lautaro who, face to face with Maignan, gave a subtle touch, with a cavadinha, to cover the French goalkeeper and score his second of the game: 2-0 at half-time!

At 23, after a corner kick, the ball hit Tomori inside the area and left for Bennacer, at the entrance of the area, who arrived filling his foot and sent it in the corner, to discount for Milan! However, after the goal, VAR called the referee to analyze a possible irregularity in the play and an irregular position was seen by Kalulu, which interfered with the vision of goalkeeper Handanovic and the goal was disallowed.
And at 36, Inter killed the game! In a great collective play, Vidal gave a beautiful deep pass to Brozovic, on the right side of the area. The Croatian, with a lot of vision of the game, crossed low where he found Gosens free, who stretched out and sent it to the nets: 3 to 0 and Inter qualified for the final of the Coppa Italia!
