21.47 – Teams preparing to return to the field.
INTERVAL – A Garibaldian Como, an Inter with limited speed. Cesc Fabregas' team did not arrive in Milan to be a sacrificial lamb and indeed they have opportunities to scare Yann Sommer; above all, he doesn't give up on playing even at the cost of leaving some deep gaps for the Nerazzurri who however don't have the merit of taking advantage of it properly, due to inaccuracy or selfishness as in the cases of Lautaro Martinez and Federico Dimarco. Denzel Dumfries probably had the most important chance of the entire first half.

42′ – With the first decent ball touched, Dimarco tries to capitalize on Carlos Augusto's assist by turning and kicking, however, too weakly to worry Reina. Barella was in an ideal position ready to reiterate on goal.

33' – Como makes a mistake and concedes the field to Inter, the golden opportunity comes to Dumfries who sends it high from an excellent position. Practically wasted a moving penalty.
31′ – Fadera runs away from the Nerazzurri defense in a regular position, finds himself in the area but hits weakly countered by Bisseck: Sommer saves.

5′ – Fadera anticipates Dumfries who dozes a bit and then puts it in the middle where Van der Brempt jumps and heads it wide.
4′ – Lazy ball from Bisseck for Dumfries, Fadera senses it and tries to go away before being closed for a lateral foul.
