Inter and Milan complete a seventh day of the championship phase very positive for the Italian teams: four wins and a draw, with Juventus the only one that did not get the three points ( 0-0 on Tuesday in Belgium with Club Brugge ). For the two Milanese teams, the 1-0 success allows them to get closer to direct qualification for the round of 16, climbing respectively to fourth and sixth place.
In the Czech Republic, Inter beat Sparta Prague 0-1. Lautaro Martínez scored in the 12th minute, with a great volley from a tight angle following a cross from the left by Bastoni . The Nerazzurri risked little, even though Sommer had to make a couple of saves, and kept a clean sheet for the sixth matchday out of seven (just one goal conceded, the best defense in the Champions League). Simone Inzaghi's team also had the chance to double their lead in the second half, but Dumfries' 0-2 was disallowed after two and a half minutes of review due to a millimetric offside by Dimarco, who provided the assist.
At the Meazza, Milan obtained its fifth consecutive victory in the Champions League and continued its climb, after having started the championship phase with two defeats. After several chances, and a crossbar by Theo Hernández, Rafael Leão scored in the 37th minute, freed on the left wing . At the end of the first half, Maignan saved the result, while in the second half a great goal by Bryan Gil (which would have been worth the draw for Girona) was disallowed for a minimal offside.
In the other matches, PSG's great comeback against Manchester City stands out: down 0-2 at the start of the second half, the Parisians overturn the result and win 4-2 . Bayern Munich's sensational defeat, 3-0 in Rotterdam against Feyenoord, the same result with which Arsenal instead wins against Dinamo Zagreb and climbs to third place. Real Madrid sweeps against Salzburg (5-1), in the advance matches 2-0 for Shakhtar Donetsk against Brest and 2-1 for Leipzig against Sporting CP.
