Inter Milan walked into Bavaria and did what few have done in recent memory—they took Bayern Munich’s fortress and left with a win. It wasn’t just any win, though. This was a statement. The kind of performance that echoes through Champions League history.

From the off, Inter looked sharp, composed, and ready for the battle. Lautaro Martínez lit the spark, rifling home a thunderbolt after a flowing move that carved Bayern open like a hot knife through strudel. It was captain’s stuff. Pure clutch. But it didn’t stop there.

Just when Bayern thought they’d drag themselves level, up stepped Frattesi. Three minutes after being pegged back, he found the net with ice in his veins to tilt the balance once again. That goal wasn’t just a response—it was a message: Inter weren’t in Munich to hang on. They were here to take control.

Bayern huffed, puffed, and threw everything at it in the second half. The introduction of Thomas Müller was meant to be the script-flipping moment. But even with the legend on the pitch, the equalizer never came. Inter’s defence stood tall, weathering every storm Munich brewed.

As the whistle blew, the San Siro loomed large on the horizon. Inter now hold the cards, and they’ll be taking them back to Italy with swagger in their step. Inzaghi’s side look hungry. Ruthless. Focused.

For Bayern, it’s a gut punch. Their unbeaten home run in Europe has ended, and the road to the semis now winds through Milanese shadows. Der Klassiker might offer them a chance to rebound, but right now, it’s the Nerazzurri who own the spotlight.

Football, eh? Never short on drama—and this night in Munich delivered it in full.
