MILAN: Inter Milan booked their ticket to the Europa League last 16 on Thursday with a 2-1 win on the night and 4-1 on aggregate over Bulgarian club Ludogorets to deafening silence and a surreal atmosphere behind closed doors of their San Siro Stadium.
“It’s certainly a surreal situation,” said Inter director Giuseppe Marotta before the match which had just a few hundred people present.“But the protection of citizens must be safeguarded. We accept, albeit reluctantly, these decisions.” Despite the tension there were smiles from the players from both teams as the Europa League anthem resounded around the empty stadium at full blast.
Cristiano Biraghi pulled Inter level six minutes later finishing off a Cristian Eriksen through ball with Romelu Lukaku adding a second just before the break.
