Inter Milan, Arsenal F.C., UEFA Champions League

Inter Milan reach Champions League semi-finals, Arsenal's hopes dashed

Inter Milan become the fourth Italian team to reach a Champions League semi-final in the last ten seasons

Inter Milan were 3-1 winners at home to Arsenal on Tuesday night, to win their quarter-final 5-1 on aggregate. The Nerazzurri will face either Barcelona or Manchester City in the last four.

Arsenal's hopes of reaching the Champions League semi-finals for the first time since 2009 were dashed by Inter Milan on Tuesday night

The Gunners lost 3-1 at the San Siro, to go down 5-1 on aggregate. The defeat means that Arsenal will have to wait at least another year for their first Champions League title.

Inter Milan were the better team on the night, and they deserved to win

The Italians were more clinical in front of goal, and they were also more solid in defence. Arsenal were not at their best, and they made too many mistakes. The Gunners will be disappointed to have been knocked out of the Champions League at this stage, but they can take solace from the fact that they have made progress this season.

Inter Milan will now face either Barcelona or Manchester City in the semi-finals

The Nerazzurri will be confident of beating either team, and they will be hoping to reach the Champions League final for the first time since 2010.
