Yann Sommer becomes the hero, Inter Milan confidently enters the final

(NLDO) – UEFA and the semi-final organizers decided to award the title of "Best Player" to goalkeeper Yann Sommer, the most deserving person to receive this award.

It was not Lautaro Martinez, who opened the scoring and then won the penalty; nor Davide Frattesi, who scored the decisive goal in the 99th minute, bringing Inter Milan to the Champions League final after 3 years, but UEFA and the Organizing Committee of the semi-final awarded the "Best Player" title to goalkeeper Yann Sommer, who played excellently against Barcelona despite having to pick the ball out of the net 3 times in the match.

On a day when the strikers created a great comeback, the role of Yann Sommer in the Inter Milan goal was not forgotten. The 36-year-old "Spiderman" also played very well in the first leg last week but his performance in the second leg of the semi-final was even more impressive, leaving viewers extremely satisfied.

Despite coach Simone Inzaghi and the home team calculating every plan to block Lamine Yamal, Barcelona's most dangerous striker, only Yann Sommer was able to do this throughout the entire match at Giuseppe Meazza.

The 17-year-old star had 9 shots throughout the match but could not get the ball into the Inter Milan goal. In the 77th minute, surrounded by many home players, Yamal still decided to take a long shot. The ball flew very uncomfortably, but goalkeeper Sommer still managed to jump up and block it with his fingertips.

Whoscored website gave Yann Sommer 9.6 points, the highest possible score in the match, possibly because his reflex save was as excellent as England legend Peter Shilton's.

The situation happened in the 57th minute, Sommer just faced Gerard Martin on the right wing and immediately jumped in the opposite direction to block Eric Garcia's shot.
