Stalemate at Etihad: City Held by Resolute Inter
Manchester City began their Champions League campaign with a 0-0 draw against Inter Milan at the Etihad Stadium. Despite dominating possession, City struggled to break down a well-organized Inter defense and create clear-cut chances. Inter, on the other hand, posed a threat on counter-attacks but were wasteful in front of goal.
The match saw Kevin De Bruyne substituted at halftime due to an injury, raising concerns ahead of City's upcoming Premier League clash with Arsenal. City manager Pep Guardiola expressed satisfaction with his team's performance, highlighting the difficulty of facing the Italian champions. However, City's inability to convert their chances into goals reflected a rare lapse in their usually clinical finishing.
Inter manager Simone Inzaghi praised his team's disciplined performance, acknowledging their missed opportunities but emphasizing the confidence gained from the draw. City's draw extends their unbeaten run in the Champions League to 24 matches, yet the result leaves them seeking improvements in their attacking efficiency as they advance in the competition.
