Yann Sommer feels that Inter Milan “scored at the right moment” in their Champions League quarterfinal second leg against Bayern Munich.

The 36-year-old spoke to InterTV after the thrilling 2-2 draw, via FCInterNews. He also added that there are “only extremely strong teams left” at the semifinal stage of the competition.

Inter Milan booked their place in the semifinals of the Champions League by beating Bayern Munich on aggregate in the quarterfinals.

Inter went into yesterday’s second leg of the tie with a 2-1 first leg lead to protect.

But Bayern managed to erase that early in the second half. Harry Kane finally got on the scoresheet, completely changing the dynamic of the tie.

With the momentum suddenly on their side, the Bavarians looked ready to complete the comeback.

However, Inter swiftly shifted it right back. They replied to Kane’s goal in emphatic fashion, with set piece goals from Lautaro Martinez and former Bayern defender Benjamin Pavard.
