"Maignon was called into action to deny Lautaro Martinez's volleyed effort with the goalkeeper making a brilliant dive to push the ball onto a post. Although Inter had been on top, Milan broke the deadlock in the 54th minute at San Siro when Alexis Saelemaekers hit a low effort from outside of the box and it was saved by Yann Sommer, who pushed the ball into the path of Pulisic for the striker to easily tap home."

Calhanoglu's spot-kick was brilliantly stopped by Maignan, who made a fantastic dive to save before subsequently clawing the rebound away."
