This evening, the awaited second leg of the Champions League Round of 16 between Inter and Feyenoord will be played at San Siro. Simone Inzaghi‘s team can capitalize on their significant advantage gained on Dutch soil with their 2-0 victory in the first leg. For this reason, the regular starters will not be deployed from the start; instead, there will be thoughtful rotation, also considering Sunday’s crucial Serie A match against Atalanta.
Thus, what does Inter require to officially secure progress to the Champions League quarter-finals tonight? First of all, Inzaghi’s players will advance with two out of three possible results: either a draw or a victory will send them directly through. The Nerazzurri could even qualify in case of defeat by a one-goal difference, given their superior goal difference.
If, however, Inter were to lose by two goals, there would first be extra time, and if the aggregate score remains unchanged, penalty kicks would follow. To qualify during regular time, Feyenoord must instead win by a three-goal margin.
