Inter Milan advance to the semi-finals after a 2-2 draw at the San Siro and winning 4-3 on aggregate

Inter went behind early in the second half when Harry Kane scored for Bayern, but the Nerazzurri soon rallied and equalised through a fierce shot from Lautaro Martinez.

Then, just three minutes later, former Bayern defender Benjamin Pavard scored a bullet header to make it 2-1 against his old club.

Bayern pushed and found their equaliser in the 76th minute when Eric Dier directed a looping header past Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer and into the far post.

The visitors threw men forward and tried to get a third that would take the tie to penalties. The Inter players were absolutely knackered but they held on.

Thomas Muller got a late chance to keep his side in it with a header from a cross, but Sommer was able to make the save.

Inter now progress to the semi-finals where they will face Barcelona.
