What Happened
Inter Milan faces a crucial UEFA Champions League playoff match against Bodo/Glimt at San Siro, needing to overturn a 3-1 deficit from the first leg. The match is set to kick off at 20:00 GMT (21:00 CET) on Tuesday, February 24. Away goals do not count in this round, meaning Inter must win by at least two goals to force extra time.
Why It Matters
This match is pivotal for Cristian Chivu’s Inter, who are currently leading Serie A with a 10-point margin over AC Milan. Despite their domestic success, the team is under pressure to avoid early elimination from the Champions League. The absence of captain Lautaro Martinez, who is sidelined due to a muscular injury, adds to the challenge. Bodo/Glimt’s historic victory in the first leg marked them as the first Norwegian team to defeat Italian opposition in a major European competition since 1996.
What’s Next
Inter must capitalize on their home advantage to secure a win and keep their Champions League hopes alive. A strong performance is essential, as they aim to progress to the Round of 16. Fans can watch the match live on Paramount+.
