De Bruyne is on the touchlines and he looks ready to come back for now. City will be hoping he is fit enough to see the match out.
- June 11, 2023 01:0130’
De Bruyne looks slightly uncomfortable as he is given medical attention. It is not sure what the issue is but it could be a hamstring issue.

- June 11, 2023 00:4210’
Di Marco, who was free on the left, is played a pass. He crosses the ball inside the box, but it is dealt easily by the City defence. It is the first proper attacking threat created by Inter in the match.
- June 11, 2023 00:418’
Inter is not allowing the City players to keep the ball with their pressing. But how long can Inzaghi’s men keep this up?

With its massive spending power, Manchester City’s run to the Champions League final has hardly come as a surprise.
The same cannot be said for Inter Milan, City’s opponent on Saturday in Istanbul.
While Inter is one of European football’s most storied teams, it enters the game as an outsider, having somewhat surprisingly reached the final. After all, Inter is the third best team in Italy, a league that has long-since lost its shine after being considered the ultimate destination for the world’s best players in the 1990s.
Inter finished the season 18 points behind league champion Napoli, the team many expected to go far before losing to AC Milan in the quarterfinals.
