Inter grabbed a vitally important first leg win in the Champions League round of sixteen against Porto.

The Nerazzurri needed until the final ten minutes of the match to break the deadlock, but striker Romelu Lukaku eventually broke the deadlock.

This result by no means guarantees Inter anything with the entire second leg still to play, but they will feel that they’ve gotten the job done.

Midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu was given UEFA’s Player of the Maatch award, and had a special dedication.

He posted on his Instagram account, “I dedicate this award to the people who are affected by the earthquake in my country. My heart is with you.”
