Lautaro Martínez, the savior of Inter
The match ended with the score 1-0 down for the neroazurror, that he debuted in this edition of the Champions League against Real Sociedad with the intention of forgetting that final lost against Manchester City last season. But he had to run from behind for 87 minutes, after the team conceded a goal four minutes into the game.
The thing is that in an exit attempt, Real pressured the defender who moved too much, the ball was stolen and Brais Méndez hit the table against the runner-up, quickly scoring the partial advantage.
Captain Lautaro Martínez had to appear to bring peace of mind to the fans of the Italian team, who suffered until the 87th minute when El Toro scored the final tie.
After trying to go deep on the left and send the center, the play entered into a tangle, which was unleashed with the appearance of Lautaro from behind everything to define left-footed, after a crossed pass that, at first, seemed to have a shooting order but the ball was hit badly.
Lautaro celebrated his goal 26 in 41 games played this season. Furthermore, it adds six goals in the last five gamess. This time, wearing the captain’s ribbon and being the savior of an Inter team that needed its scorer to avoid a deserved defeat.
Otamendi and Di María’s Benfica fell in their debut
The Eagles had been left with the feeling of having had a great season last year. And they have something to prove: they advanced to the quarterfinals, where they fell to the runners-up 5-3 on aggregate. But now another story began, and it started off on the wrong foot.
Within minutes the match had set the tone for what the match would be like for the Portuguese team. The thing is that after two minutes he had a penalty against him, which Karim Konaté later ended up shooting over the crossbar. Until then, luck was on his side, but a few minutes later, he had to suffer another penalty.
The Danish Alexander Bah touched back, left it short and was grabbed by the Croatian striker Roko Simic, who shot in front of the goalkeeper but Nicolás Otamendi arrived to block the shot. The ball took a strange flight, hit the crossbar, and, with doubt as to whether it went in or not and the desire to get it out, António Silva touched it with his hand so that the referee ruled a new penalty and the defender was sent off.
In this one yes. Simic He didn’t beat around the bush and made it 1-0. Ángel Di María was the protagonist, one of the team’s high points trying by land, air, or whatever. In fact, one of the clearest was from the corner that Olympian scored, if he didn’t prevent it Alexander Schlager.
