Simone Inzaghi recognized the qualities of the potential Champions League final opponents from Inter, but claimed that his team had already beaten “the best two sides in Europe” to achieve the showpiece game.
Inter was two minutes away from falling out of the semi-finals before Francesco Acerbi found the right time to achieve his first Champions League goal. The 37-year-old cancer survived in front of Ronald Araujo to sweep a balance of 93 minute, with the tie at 3-3 and a total of 6-6.
Davide Frattesi, who missed the training session on Monday and asked for painkillers to appear as a replacement at all, grabbed the crucial strike in extra time to set up a final against one of Arsenal or PSG on May 31.
“They are two great teams with two great coaches, with players we know,” Inzaghi admitted after a dramatic triumph on Tuesday. “The Champions League final will be a great finale, whether arsenal or Paris Saint-Germain.
“But Bayern Munich and Barcelona were probably the two best teams in Europe [this season]. We have to be proud of what we did. This was an extremely difficult match against an opponent who had an incredibly high level. “
Inter achieved a 4-3 overall victory against Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals. Another late attempt by Frattesi achieved a victory for the Italian giants in Bavaria in Bavaria before San Siro scored a 2-2 draw to eliminate the newly crowned Bundesliga champions.
Inzaghi could be justified in his trust before a potential matchup against arsenal after monitoring a 1-0 win over the Gunners during the league. Inter has never confronted PSG in a competitive coat, although two years ago they achieved improvement during a summer -friendly in the side of Luis Enrique.
After the Barcelona boss Hansi Flick had launched a devastating tirade against the referee, she took the time to welcome Inter. “Tonight, when you come home and look in the mirror, you can be very proud,” he noted. “And we’ll start again next season. To win the Champions League, we are one of our goals. We want to do it next season.”
