It didn't take long for the "Inter" fans to wait for the equalizing goal - in the 18th minute, Lautaro Martinez converted a penalty kick.
In the 41st minute, Cristiano Ronaldo, after receiving a pass from P. Dybala, sent the ball into the goal, but after VAR review, the goal was disallowed due to an offside violation.
In the second half, both teams demonstrated attractive football and had opportunities to change the score in their favor, but the decisive word in this match was spoken only after the substitute Juventus forward Gonzalo Higuain appeared in the box and scored the winning goal in the 80th minute.
