Inter had chances of their own with Lautaro Martinez wasting a glorious opportunity to put his team ahead after finding himself with only the keeper to beat. And while he had better options around him, the Argentine went for glory only to be thwarted by Ederson much to the displeasure of his teammates.
The chance proved costly as City took the lead through Rodri minutes later. The midfielder struck superbly from just inside the area to send the Citizens on their way to a first-ever Champions League title and a historic treble.
Federico Di Marco hit the bar with a header for Inter in response moments later and had his rebound blocked by team-mate Romelu Lukaku, before Foden was denied by André Onana as he had a chance to double City’s advantage.
Lukaku had a huge chance to level the scored in the 89th minute but his header from point-blank range was somehow saved by Ederson as it struck the Brazilian’s standing leg.
