Inter have already emerged victorious against Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena in 2011, and Wesley Sneijder, a Nerazzurri player at the time, recalled how they stunned an opponent who was already confident of qualifying for the next round following their win at San Siro.
The Biscione faced the Bavarian giants as Champions League holders in the competition’s round of 16, but Mario Gomez’s winner in the first leg in Milan made their task much harder, leaving them with little chance of turning the tie around at Bayern’s home, traditionally a hostile ground for any team.
