Champions League
Tresoldi shines as Bruges face a battered Inter at the San Siro
Club Brugge, denied points after a defeat to Aston Villa, face Inter Milan tonight, also seeking their first win after the loss to Real Madrid. The two teams, already shaken, meet at 9:00 pm on the San Siro pitch, as part of the second matchday of the Champions League.
A decisive hat‑trick for Tresoldi
Nicolo Tresoldi opens the scoring in the thirty‑second minute, before adding two more goals in the sixty‑three and seventy‑four minute. His third goal, described as a strike into the top corner, seals Club Brugge’s victory. The images © Photo News show Tresoldi still in the right place, even after a rebound from Carlos Forbs that allowed him to push the ball into the empty net.
Inter Milan in difficulty
Inter, led by goalkeeper Yann Sommer, saw its striker Lautaro Martínez miss several chances, including a powerful shot from Virgili that was deflected by the post. Another key moment was the goalkeeper’s exit from his box, pre‑empted by Forbs who supplied Tresoldi. Despite a attempt by Dimarco against Sommer, Inter failed to convert.
The match also recalled the reunion between coach Aleksandar Stanković and his former teammates, adding an emotional dimension to the encounter.
