Liverpool produced one of their most resilient European performances of the season as they edged Inter Milan 1-0 at the San Siro, ending the Nerazzurri’s incredible 18-match unbeaten home run in the UEFA Champions League. In a high-intensity, tactical battle, it was Dominik Szoboszlai’s late strike that sealed a monumental victory for the Reds.
Liverpool Strike First in Hostile Territory
Coming into the match, Inter were one of the toughest sides to beat on home soil in Europe. Their last UCL home defeat dated back nearly two full seasons, and they had scored in 17 of those 18 unbeaten fixtures. But Liverpool arrived in Milan with a point to prove after a turbulent league campaign.
The breakthrough came in the 32nd minute when Ibrahima Konaté rose tallest to head home from a corner, giving Liverpool a deserved 1-0 lead. The French defender dominated aerial duels all night and set the tone for a gritty Reds performance.
Inter Push Back but Can’t Break Liverpool’s Shape
Inter reacted strongly after conceding, controlling large spells of possession and pushing Liverpool back with rapid transitions. However, Arne Slot’s side held their defensive lines superbly, with Van Dijk and Konaté forming an immovable shield in front of goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher.
Despite several half-chances from the hosts, Liverpool’s pressing and discipline kept Inter from generating any clear-cut opportunities.
Szoboszlai Seals It Late
With the match tightening and Inter piling bodies forward, Liverpool struck a decisive blow in the 88th minute.
Dominik Szoboszlai found space on the edge of the box, shifted the ball onto his right foot, and unleashed a clinical finish into the bottom corner to make it 0-1 and silence the San Siro. The Hungarian midfielder has become known for his long-range precision, and this strike was no exception — a moment of pure class that secured all three points for the Reds.
Historic Win for Liverpool
Inter’s 18-game unbeaten home streak in the Champions League was one of Europe’s most intimidating records. Ending it required character, composure, and big-moment players — all of which Liverpool displayed in Milan.
The victory not only strengthens their position in the UCL league phase standings but also sends a message to the rest of Europe: Liverpool can still deliver elite performances when it matters most.
