Inter open their Champions League season away against Real Sociedad San Sebastian on Wednesday evening. The Milanese arrived in top form, after four matchdays they are at the top of Serie A and have the maximum number of points. But she can expect a difficult match in the Basque cauldron.

After just a few minutes, Inter was behind. The Italians were unable to counter the host’s attack for much of the match. Only one person is aware: Nati goalkeeper Yann Sommer (34). With a brilliant save he prevented a 2-0 score immediately after half-time.

After a corner, Real Sociedad striker Mikel Oyarzabal (26) is freed to head the ball in from a few meters. But Sommer unleashes a monster reflex on the line and lays the foundation for Inter’s comeback. A comeback that world champion Lautaro Martinez (26) made perfect with the equalizer shortly before the end.

“His best parade”

After the match, Sommer was showered with praise. Coach Simone Inzaghi (47) knows exactly who he owes the stolen point to. «Inter has suffered. But the summer helped us stay in the game.”

The “Gazzetta dello Sport” goes one step further. The newspaper praised the performances of the Swiss national goalkeeper over the green clover, writing: “Sommer shows the best parade since he played for Inter. Instinctively he intercepts Oyarzabal’s header on the goal line.

And the summer itself? He remains calm and says after the match: “It was a complicated match, but we showed character.” Speaking about his brilliant save, he said: “That was important, it meant we stayed in the game and kept our heads up.”

Inter’s next opponent in the premier class is also difficult. Last year’s finalist, Benfica, welcomes Lisbon home. Even then, a brilliant Yann Sommer will again be in high demand. (sbe)
