Alessandro Bastoni, Nicolo Barella, and Lautaro Martinez inspired Inter Milan to a crucial Champions League win at Bayern Munich last night.

Per Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the star trio ran the show at the Allianz Stadium.

Despite a morale-wracking 2-2 draw at Parma last weekend, Inter returned to their usual best when it mattered the most.

Indeed, Simone Inzaghi led the Nerazzurri to a superb 2-1 triumph in the first leg of this heavyweight quarter-final tie.

Lautaro Martinez and Davide Frattesi were the executioners, but the rest of the team fared outstandingly.
