The first goal came in the 38th minute and it was a result of fast teamwork. Marcus Thuram and Carlos Augusto combined well on the left, and their clever move ended with Lautaro Martínez finishing calmly past the goalkeeper. It was a simple yet sharp move and it caught Bayern off guard.

Bayern Fight Back Late

Bayern Munich didn’t stop pushing. They dominated the ball, moved it around quickly, and created several good chances. Harry Kane and Thomas Müller both had opportunities, but they either missed or were denied by Inter’s goalkeeper, Yann Sommer.

In the 85th minute, Müller finally got Bayern back in the game with a well-timed finish. The stadium roared. For a moment, it felt like the comeback was on.

Inter Milan Respond Instantly With a Second Goal

Almost straight after Bayern equalized, Inter hit back. This time, it was Davide Frattesi who scored. He took advantage of a loose defence and smashed the ball into the net in the 88th minute. Bayern had barely celebrated when they were behind again.
