Never underestimate the spirit of the people from Huaxia.

They may not retaliate with words, but they will respond through their actions.

The UEFA Champions League anthem echoed across the San Siro!

The majestic melody silenced the crowd.

"cesontlesmeilleuresequipes" (French)

"essinddieallerbestenmannschaften" (German)

"themainevent" (English)

"diemeister" (German)

"diebesten" (German) ...

But while the anthem played, the north stand of the San Siro came alive. A massive TIFO unfolded across the stands.

Through meticulous planning and rehearsals, three enormous trophies emerged.

These trophies symbolized the treble won under Mourinho's leadership!

Below the trophies, another giant banner appeared, displaying three figures dressed in yellow outfits and wearing thief-like masks.

Beneath them, a bold Italian phrase was written: "Il trofeo della Champions League è qui!"

(Translation: The Champions League trophy is here!)

This was an obvious response to the giant TIFO displayed at Signal Iduna Park during the previous leg.

The fans were showing their loyalty and passion for their team, sending a defiant message to Borussia Dortmund: "Whatever TIFO you have, we can match it!"

Meanwhile, the Milan vs. Arsenal game had concluded. Although AC Milan dominated with a 4-0 victory at home, they narrowly avoided disaster in London, losing 3-0 in the second leg.

Despite AC Milan's advancement, Arsenal fans found moments of hope.

Inter Milan fans, on the other hand, knew it would be a tough challenge to win. Still, they hoped to defend their home ground.

Before the match, during a TV interview, Inter fans made their thoughts clear:

"It's fine if we get eliminated, but we must shut down that Huaxia kid!"

"Yes, don't let that Huaxia kid do whatever he wants again!"

"Make him experience the legendary Italian defensive chains!"

Clearly, the fans harbored significant resentment toward Ye Chen.

Given the circumstances, it was no surprise that Ye Chen faced boos throughout the match.

Ye Chen noticed the massive spectacle from the north stand.

While he couldn't understand the Italian phrase, it was clear that it wasn't meant to be complimentary.

"Forget it," he thought to himself. "I'll just focus on the game."

Both teams made adjustments to their lineups for this second-leg clash.

As for Ye Chen, he retained his position on the left flank.

The players took their places as the stadium staff left the field, and the ball boys exited. Weidenfeller chose to defend the southern goal, leaving Inter to kick off the game.

The north stand of San Siro, akin to Dortmund's famous Yellow Wall, roared with fervor. Weidenfeller knew he had to stay composed to avoid being overwhelmed by the pressure.

"Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle, signaling the start of the match.

Inter Milan launched a full-scale offensive right from the kickoff. With a significant deficit to overturn, they had no time for cautious probing.

Inter pressed high, determined to claw back into the tie.

Dortmund's players, however, were well-prepared. Klopp had instructed them to focus on solid defending for the first 20 minutes, aiming to frustrate Inter.

Holding a commanding advantage from the first leg, Dortmund's strategy was simple: disrupt the tempo and wait for Inter's desperation to set in.

Dortmund's defensive core featured Van Dijk, Hummels, and Sven Bender. After a period of rest, Bender was back to full fitness, and his sharp movements reflected his excellent form.

Dortmund executed Klopp's tactics perfectly. Aside from Lewandowski, who stayed forward as a target man, every other player contributed defensively.

Even Ye Chen tucked into the center during defensive phases.

5:12

Dortmund cleared the ball from their own box, and Lewandowski, marked tightly by Samuel, saw the ball deflect to Lucio.

Lucio wasted no time, launching a long ball toward Milito.

Milito, in fine form, held up the ball and laid it off to Sneijder, who delivered a precise through ball without hesitation.

Forlán, known for his prowess as a striker, took the pass and adjusted his footing despite the pressure from Hummels. He unleashed a thunderous strike.

"Boom!"

The ball deformed slightly under the force of the shot, heading toward the bottom-right corner.

Weidenfeller, showcasing his razor-sharp reflexes, managed to tip the ball away with his fingertips.

"Wow! What a shot! What a save!"

"Inter's attack was brilliant, but Weidenfeller, wearing the captain's armband today, rose to the occasion!"

Inter earned a corner, but Van Dijk's aerial dominance nullified the threat.

13:04

Sneijder delivered another set piece, targeting Cambiasso at the far post. Cambiasso, timing his run perfectly, struck the ball on the volley, but the angle was too tight.

Weidenfeller made another comfortable save and quickly restarted the play.

Inter's relentless pressing created another chance when Milito intercepted a slow pass meant for Sven Bender. Despite a valiant recovery attempt by Van Dijk, Milito broke free and unleashed a narrow-angled shot.

"Boom!"

But once again, Weidenfeller denied Inter with a spectacular save, preserving Dortmund's lead.

Time ticked on, and while Inter dominated possession, they couldn't find the breakthrough.

30:01

Inter finally capitalized on a corner. After several failed clearances, Sneijder broke free and rounded Weidenfeller with a dazzling move, firing the ball into the net with an explosive finish.

The San Siro erupted as Sneijder celebrated his goal, and the commentator's voice roared above the deafening crowd:

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooal!"

Inter was back in the game, and the fans, filled with hope, chanted Sneijder's name in unison.
