Thanks to last-minute Lukaku: Milan derby in the cup quarter-finals

With a win in the cup round of 119 against Fiorentina on Wednesday afternoon, Inter made it into the next round. It wasn't until the XNUMXth minute of extra time that Antonio Conte's team scored the winning goal. A powerful header from Romelu Lukaku, who was left criminally alone, decided the game.

Ultimately deserved, after all Inter did more for the game in extra time and created a few chances. In the previous 90 minutes it was mostly an even game, with Inter closer to the winning goal. 1:1 after 90 minutes About 5 minutes before the first half-time whistle, Inter took the lead. After a long shot from Christian Eriksen from around 20 meters, Pietro Terracciano could only let the ball bounce forward. Alexis Sanchez put the follow-up shot on the inside of the post. However, because Terracciano then ran into the Chilean, the scene was checked using video evidence. Referee Davide Massa finally pointed to the penalty spot: Arturo Vidal converted the penalty.

A few minutes later, a penalty for Fiorentina was reversed using VAR. In the 57th minute, the Violets finally managed to equalize. Inter failed to clear a corner kick properly and Christian Kouamé ended up hammering the ball into the goal. It remained 1-1 after 90 minutes.
