After winning the so-called “Euroderby” 3-0 on aggregate, the Nerazzurri advanced to its first final since winning the league, the Italian Cup, and the Champions League under José Mourinho in 2010. Several players from both teams broke down in tears.
“It’s obviously a great emotion, a dream that I had together with the guys, that we nurtured right from when the draw was made. We had to believe in ourselves and we have got here by merit, no one has gifted us anything,” Inter coach Stefano Inzaghi said.
Ronaldo keeps Al-Nassr hopes in Saudi title race alive
Cristiano Ronaldo helped Al-Nassr win 2-0 over Al-Ta’ee on Tuesday by converting a penalty to give them another shot at winning the Saudi Pro League championship in his first season with the team.
Al-Nassr moved to within three points of first place with three games left in the season as league leaders Al-Ittihad threw away a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with Al-Hilal. Ronaldo gave Al-Nassr the lead from the penalty spot just after halftime and Brazilian Talisca settled the game with another goal ten minutes from the final whistle.

Ronaldo was also present, in spirit at least, at Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium in Riyadh as Al-Hilal scored controversial goals at the end of each half to battle back and hold Al-Ittihad to a draw. Igor Coronado and Ahmed Bamsoud gave Al-Ittihad the lead in the opening thirty minutes, but Musab Aljuwayr halved the score four minutes before halftime.
