Bayern Munich 1-2 Inter Milan: Lautaro Martinez and Frattesi Seal Inter’s Big Away Win

Inter Milan struck late to snatch a dramatic 2-1 away win against Bayern Munich in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final clash, ending the German giants’ 22-match unbeaten home run in the competition and putting themselves in pole position ahead of the return leg at the San Siro.

Lautaro Martinez and Frattesi Seal Inter’s Big Away Win

Despite Bayern Munich dominating the early stages and Harry Kane hitting the post, it was Inter Milan who opened the scoring in the 38th minute with their first shot on target. A slick team move ended with Marcus Thuram flicking a clever pass into Lautaro Martinez’s path, and the Argentine fired a sensational finish into the roof of the net with the outside of his boot — his 7th Champions League goal this season.

While Thomas Müller equalized in the 85th minute, moments after coming on as a substitute, Inter responded immediately. In the 88th minute, Carlos Augusto whipped in a perfect cross for Davide Frattesi, who buried the winner to silence the Allianz Arena crowd.

Bayern’s Unbeaten Home Record Ends, Inter Take Control

The loss marks Bayern’s first home defeat in the Champions League since 2021, and now Vincent Kompany’s side must travel to Italy needing a big result to keep their hopes alive — especially with the final set to be played at their own stadium on May 31.
