In the early morning of Wednesday Beijing time, the focus of the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals was held, and Inter challenged Liverpool away. With a 2-0 defeat in the first leg, can the Nerazzurri stage a stunning comeback?
Sitting in Meazza in the first leg, Inter actually played quite well, holding out for 75 minutes before being broken by substitute Firmino, salah went down to the next city in the 93rd minute, and finally lost 0-2.
Although the away scoring rules have been abolished, Inter have to score at least three goals in order to reverse their visit to Anfield. The good news was a 5-0 win over Salernitana in Serie A in the last round, Lautaro scored a hat-trick and Dzeko scored twice, and the bad news was that the Second Place defense in the Premier League was far better than the Deputy Squad Leader of Serie A.
The data shows that the first leg of the home 0-2 loss, the second leg to the away can also reverse the promotion, the Champions League history has only happened once, that is, the 2018-19 Champions League quarter-finals, Manchester United first lost 0-2 to Paris at the Theatre of Dreams, and then counterattacked in the Parc des Princes, 3-1 reversal, with the advantage of more goals away to enter the quarterfinals.
It can be seen that Inter want to make a surprise reversal, not without a chance, but it is very difficult.
However, 57 years ago, the Nerazzurri had a similar successful precedent, and the opponent happened to be Liverpool! In the 1964-65 Champions League semi-finals, when the big international first leg was played away first, the result was 1-3 loss, net loss of 2 goals, the second leg of the home win 3-0, 4-3 overall score to advance to the final, and finally 1-0 Benfica won the championship.
