Inter Milan went to great lengths to overcome Barcelona in one of the most spectacular Champions League semi-finals ever contested.
Davide Frattesi stole the limelight as the hero of this remarkable success.
Indeed, the 25-year-old netted an extra-time winner to set a jaw-dropping 7-6 aggregate score.
Meanwhile, Lautaro Martinez netted his ninth Champions League goal this season.
Finally, Simone Inzaghi guided the Nerazzurri to their second European final in three years.
Per Opta, El Toro became the first Nerazzurri star to hit a nine-goal landmark in one UCL season since Hernan Crespo.
Therefore, he can break the record in the final.
