January 13, 2022 Alexis Sanchez Fires Inter Milan To Italian Super Cup Victory

Substitute Alexis Sanchez sealed Inter Milan’s first Italian Super Cup since 2010 in dramatic style as he scored a 121st-minute winner against Juventus.

The forward stunned Juve with the final kick of a game that was heading to a penalty shootout.

Weston McKennie had opened the scoring for Juve only for Lautaro Martinez to level with a first-half penalty.

Inter’s Denzel Dumfries had a header tipped on to bar in normal time before Sanchez won it in extra time.

The former Arsenal and Manchester United forward pounced when Matteo Darmian managed to prod the ball into his path after Juve defender Alex Sandro failed to control and clear a Federico Dimarco cross into the box.

Victory secured Simone Inzaghi his first piece of silverware as Inter boss, having taken over from title-winning manager Antonio Conte in the summer.

It was also a third Super Cup triumph for the 45-year-old as manager, having twice previously guided Lazio to victory against Juventus in the showpiece event.
