A second-half goal by forward Lautaro Martinez earned Inter Milan a 1-0 victory over rivals AC Milan in their Champions League semifinal second leg on Tuesday, sealing a 3-0 aggregate win to book their ticket to the showpiece in Istanbul.

Inter went into the game holding a 2-0 advantage after Edin Dzeko and Henrikh Mkhitaryan had struck early in a flying start to the first leg.

Milan recovered some of the spark they lacked without main man Rafael Leao in first leg but Martinez put the tie to bed when he struck powerfully from close range to put Inter in front in the 74th minute.

Inter will face Real Madrid or Manchester City in the final on June 10 in Istanbul.
