AC Milan Shuts Down Inter Milan's Treble Hopes with 3-0 Victory in Coppa Italia Semifinal
Posted on April 24, 2025
AC Milan delivered a decisive 3-0 victory over city rivals Inter Milan in the second leg of the Coppa Italia semifinals, effectively dashing Inter's hopes of completing a treble this season. With this win at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, Milan advanced to the final with an aggregate score of 4-1, having drawn 1-1 in the first leg.
Luka Jovic was the star of the match, scoring both of Milan's first two goals. His first came in the 36th minute when he headed in a cross from Álex Jiménez, sending the Milan supporters into a frenzy. Just four minutes into the second half, Jovic struck again, capitalizing on a corner that found him at the far post, reinforcing Milan's dominance in the derby.
The final blow to Inter's aspirations came in the 85th minute when Tijjani Reijnders slotted home Milan's third goal from a tight angle, sealing a comprehensive victory for the Rossoneri. Reijnders expressed the team's belief in their capabilities, emphasizing the significance of the win given their struggles in Serie A, where they currently sit ninth.
Despite Inter's promising start, including a near goal from Federico Dimarco that hit the bar, they could not find the back of the net throughout the match. This defeat follows a disappointing 1-0 loss to Bologna in Serie A, putting pressure on the team as they prepare for an upcoming Champions League semifinal against Barcelona.
Milan's victory not only brings them closer to potential silverware but also serves as a significant morale boost in a season that has seen them fall short in league play. The final of the Coppa Italia is set for May 14 in Rome, where Milan will aim to secure their place in European competition for next season.
