Romelu Lukaku and Nicolo Barella were on target for Inter Milan in the 2-0 win over Inter Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Barella headed home firmly at the back post in the 51st minute, rising unchallenged to get on the end of a superb cross from centre back Alessandro Bastoni, who was storming up the left side and delivered a pin-point ball.
Substitute Lukaku then converted an 82nd minute penalty after VAR referred a handball by Benfica skipper Joao Mario for review by English referee Michael Oliver, who gave the spot kick after looking at the video monitor on the side of the pitch.
The two goals hand Inter a major advantage for the return leg at San Siro next Wednesday, where they will be heavily fancied to progress to an all-Italian semifinal against either neighbours AC Milan or Napoli.
