49' – GOLLLLLLLL!!!! CARLOS AUGUSTO GIVES INTER THE ADVANTAGE!! Great start to the second half for Inzaghi's team. From Calhanoglu's corner, Carlos Augusto flies higher than anyone and beats Reina with a precise header. With the third potential scoring opportunity, Inter made it 1-0.
48′ – What a start from Inter in the second half!!! Cross from Dimarco at the far post, Thuram and Dumfries get in trouble.
46′ – Inter immediately dangerous! Dimarco receives the opening and crosses immediately, Barella was in the area but the Como defense sweeps.
46′ – Here we go again, the second half of Inter-Como has begun.
21.37 – Excellent first half for Fabregas' team, which presents itself at San Siro with an open face but very covered behind: Inter struggles to create many scoring opportunities due to the opponent's pressure. At half an hour Dumfries has the ball at their feet: completely alone he shoots the penalty high on the move following an assist from Mkhitaryan. The first real team construction comes three minutes before the break, with Dimarco who shoots weakly and centrally with his right foot after a good move on the left with Carlos Augusto.
45' – The first half of Inter 0-0 Como ends here.
45′ – There will be no recovery.
42′ – Opportunity for Inter with Dimarco!! First good team move by the Nerazzurri who build on the left, Carlos Augusto finds Dimarco in the area: the winger turns well and shoots with his right foot practically without looking, but the shot is central. Barella despairs because he was completely alone behind Dimash.
38′ – Bisseck finished very well on Strefezza in the area, Como's action could have been very dangerous but the German's intervention was providential.
37′ – Dumfries is certainly the most active Nerazzurri: Calha's dive into the Dutchman's run, who tries to beat Dossena but earns a corner kick.
33′ – Sensational opportunity for Inter! Dumfries receives it alone in the area from Mkhitaryan but shoots high from an excellent position. It was practically a moving penalty, the Dutchman didn't take advantage of it.
31′ – Fadera comes back on the right and shoots towards goal, the shot is very slow and arrives calmly into Sommer's arms.
30′ – Excellent first half hour for the guests, who took to the pitch with excellent personality at San Siro: Inter can't find the right spaces to hurt Como at the start.
27′ – Nico Paz! Right-footed shot from outside by the Argentine talent, on the first ring of the match. Sommer checks.
26′ – Barella wastes a chance to start on the counterattack: the midfielder tries with his heel Dimarco who had started in an internal overlap but his ball is imprecise.
24′ – Yellow for Bisseck for a foul on Belotti. Correct warning but the referee should have granted the advantage because Como's action was promising.
21′ – Lautaro!!! Bisseck passes the ball to Barella who makes an exceptional pass, Toro receives and tries to kick. Corner kick for Inter, the Argentine could have given it back to the midfielder.
19′ – In the Como area Dumfries does not reach the ball due to Dossena's coverage, but there was a corner kick on the deflection of the Fabregas defender who had put the ball out.
18′ – The pace at San Siro has slowed down a bit, Inter are no longer chasing Como.
12′ – Mkhitaryan!! Another scoring opportunity for Inter, the Armenian receives it in the area after a bad mistake by Como in the build-up but stifles the conclusion too much with his right foot.
9′ – Exceptional intensity at San Siro! Inter become very dangerous with Thuram who misses 3 and shoots with his left foot, Reina saved by Dossena's intervention. The match is already very good.
8′ – Opportunity for Como! Carlos Augusto loses a very poisonous ball, in the area Belotti passes for Goldaniga who arrives to shoot. Wall sticks, then the referee whistles for a foul on C. Augusto.
6′ – Cross from Fadera from the back for Van der Brempt, who towers over Dimarco but is unable to direct it towards the goal protected by Sommer.
5′ – Start of personality of Como who does not give up on setting up from the bottom to move up the pitch.

20.27 – Inter president Giuseppe Marotta responded to the statements of Milan owner Cardinale: “I wouldn't have wanted to talk about it, but I think it's my duty to respond. They are statements that are out of place, inappropriate and disrespectful of the prestigious figure of this club.”
