45th +3rd minute: And then it's half-time! Milan takes on the thankless task of falling behind and sometimes courageously plays forward without taking the big risk. However, they did not take advantage of the two big chances to score, which will make the task all the more difficult in the second half. Inter, on the other hand, are good for long periods of the game and missed out on creating a preliminary decision through their own chances. We'll get back to you right after half-time!

39th minute: Calhanoglu with a free-kick hammer! Maignan sees the ball late on, but can just parry, and Dzeko was still slightly on it with his head.
37th minute: Milan are dangerous again! Rafael Leao makes his first appearance and almost scores from an acute angle. Thus, Milan has already missed two good opportunities to score in the first half. Exactly what their arch-rivals did brilliantly in the first leg when they led 15-2 after less than 0 minutes.
35th minute: It stays that way for the time being. Milan always ventures into the opponent's half, but gets caught on the opponents in front of the penalty area.
32nd minute: A treatment of Dumfries calms the action down a bit.

23rd minute: Inter switch again quickly and look for a way into the penalty area, but Milan is able to close it. A shot by Mkhitaryan from 18 yards remains harmless and goes over.
17th minute: After the first quarter of an hour, there is another entertaining game. Milan tries to play courageously forward. However, Inter sometimes start early, sometimes they lurk for mistakes and can be dangerous at times, as they did in the first leg.
14th minute: On the other side, Inter finish dangerously immediately afterwards. However, the first pass before the flank was already played offside.

11th minute: Huge chance for Brahim Diaz! A pass from Tonali lands on his foot, but Onana is able to parry the finish into the bottom right corner. There is also great excitement about the action, as the Interisti complain about a foul in midfield, but this was not punished.
9th minute: Tonali goes through on the right and brings a promising cross. However, an Inter player still has his head on it.
7th minute: Many small foul-related interruptions characterize the first few minutes.
5th minute: On the other side, Theo reports with a tight finish from just under 25 meters. This one goes over the gate more narrowly than Onana might have suspected.
3rd minute: Dimarco with the first good pass, where Dzeko finishes. Previously, however, a foul had been punished.
1st minute: Let's go! Inter kicks off and opens the game.
Update, 20:55 p.m.: Now it's done, the team around Clement Turpin leads the teams onto the field. Now we listen to the anthem, then it starts! Even today, both curves come up with great choreographies.
Update, 20:44 p.m.: The teams are already in the dressing room, the lawn is being watered again. We will get back to you in time for the Champions League anthem.
Update, 20:37 p.m.: Another statistic in favor of those who hold it with Inter. Today, her team could not only knock the rival out of the competition, but beat them for the fourth time in 2023. In addition to last week's success, there have already been victories for the Nerazzurri in the Supercoppa and in the league duel in February.
Champions League semi-finals: Inter vs Milan in the live ticker – fans cause bus chaos in front of the stadium
Update, 20:20 p.m.: With about twenty minutes delay, the bus from Inter arrives at the stadium because of the traffic chaos. In the last few meters, the bus had a lot of trouble getting through the crowds. Nevertheless, both teams are on the pitch on time for the warm-up. A delayed kick-off is therefore probably not to be expected.
Update, 20:12 p.m.: A good three-quarters of an hour before it finally starts. Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan has just stepped onto the pitch and is greeted by a powerful concert of whistles.

Update, 19:39 p.m.: Meanwhile, the Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the Interisti team bus is having trouble getting to the stadium and is being stopped by fans cheering.
Update, 19:33 p.m.: And there we already have the first line-up. First, let's start with today's "hosts". As you'd expect, Inzaghi has confidence in last week's XI and has made his 3-5-2 system as follows: Onana - Darmian, Acerbi, Bastoni - Dumfries, Barella, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan, Dimarco - Dzeko, La. Martinez.

Champions League semi-finals: Inter vs Milan today in the live ticker - will the revenge succeed?
First reported on 16 May: Milan – In the semi-final second leg of the Champions League, between city rivals Inter and Milan, six days after the Black and Blues' first-leg success, a lot of prestige is at stake in addition to reaching the final. Milan, who were also out of form in Serie A at the weekend, will face an in-form arch-rival who are unbeaten in eight competitive games today, Tuesday (16 May, 21:00 CET, Prime Video).

Milan semi-final derby live today: Inter are in top form ahead of the second leg
Inter not only remained unbeaten, but were even able to record seven victories in a row, which not only makes it difficult for arch-rivals Milan to reach the final, but also the potential qualification for the coming season in the European Belle Etage. Inter are currently in third place thanks to a 4-2 win over Sassuolo last Saturday (13 May) and have a five-point lead over Milan in fifth place with three games remaining. This only entitles you to participate in the Europa League.
A showpiece of success is the defence, as Inter defender Francesco Acerbi also knows: "We are aware of our strength and ready." The team have conceded just three goals in their last seven competitive games, and were compact and disciplined after taking a quick 2-0 lead in the derby last week.
DFB player Robin Gosens can also hope to play. The 28-year-old played the last 30 minutes of last Saturday's league game after recovering from a shoulder injury – but will be back on the bench behind Federico Dimarco in the Champions League second leg. In general, it can be assumed that Simone Inzaghi will again trust the team from the first leg compared to Serie A, which would mean starting eleven appearances for ex-Bundesliga players Edin Dzeko, Hakan Calhanoglu and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

Milan derby in the semi-finals live today: Milan and the wait for Rafael Leao
The situation is different in the red-black part of the city. Milan seem to have lost their form at the moment, as they suffered another defeat at relegation-threatened AC Spezia on Saturday (13 May) after losing to Inter. In a game in which Milan could not establish superiority, Rafael Leao was once again sorely missed. The great hope now lies in the fact that the Portuguese can play again in the second leg with his fast sprints and dribbles. Nevertheless, Milan will have to do without Ismeal Bennacer, who had to leave the field after just 18 minutes last Wednesday and will be missing from Stefano Pioli's team for a long time.
The coach pragmatically summed up the remaining chance for his team's comeback: "Nobody believes that we will make it to the final. But no one believed that we would get this far either. We know we're behind, but we also know we can turn it around."
Should the Rossoneri actually succeed in catching up, they would have the chance to win their eighth European Cup triumph (four European Cups and three Champions League titles so far) in the final in Istanbul. Despite difficult harbingers, at least one affair in which Milan is ahead of city rivals Inter (three titles so far). (nki)
