Leading 2-0 from the first leg in Lisbon, Inter Milan secured a historic Champions League semi-final beating Benfica 5-3 on aggregate at an ecstatic San Siro.
Inter have lost four of their past five games in Serie A to drop out of the Champions League places, but Simone Inzaghi’s side can now look forward to two mouth-watering matches against Milan – who knocked out Napoli on Tuesday – for a place in the final.
Manchester City set up a Champions League semi-final clash with holders Real Madrid as they saw off Bayern Munich 4-1 on aggregate following a 1-1 draw last night.
City are now unbeaten in 15 games since they lost at Tottenham on 5 February and the possibility of a treble this season will become clearer over the next week as they face Sheffield United in the FA Cup semi-final on Saturday and then leaders Arsenal in the Premier League on Wednesday.
