FC Porto 0:0 Inter Milan (Inter Win 1-0 on Aggregate) – UEFA Champions League Last 16 Second Leg
The game ended scoreless, with the hosts failing to score in both matches. This means that the late strike from Romelu Lukaku in the first leg is enough to send Inter to the quarterfinals for the first time in 12 years.
“It wasn’t an easy night. We knew before the match that it would be difficult here, because to play at the Dragáo is really difficult because the atmosphere is hot, and they have a good team.” Hakan Calhanoglu told UEFA.
“We knew that beforehand, but we prepared well, we defended well today. Of course, they had some chances but, in the end, they couldn’t score, so we’re happy. And I’m happy for the club because after many years, we’re in the quarterfinals.
“It was very crazy. I was a little bit scared, but its normal if you play in the Champions League.
“There’s more adrenaline and anything can happen during a game. As I said before, we fight until the end, so we’re lucky but of course we’re also happy at the same time.
“In the Champions League all the teams are good, so we have to wait and see who we will play against. But the most important thing was to go through today.”
