Istanbul, June 9 (Ians) Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City have some unfinished business to settle when they take on Inter Milan of Italy in the final of the 2022-23 edition of the UEFA Champions League here on Saturday.
City have never won the title in the history of the tournament and their best performance was finishing runner-up to fellow-English club Chelsea in the 2020-21 edition. Inter on the other hand have the title thrice and will be looking to reclaim it for the fourth time in the match to be played at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium, Istanbul, Turkey.
With their cash-rich owners from the Gulf region pumping in huge funds, City had roped in Guardiola, the former Barcelona boss, to win the Champions League in 2016. Guardiola has guided them to five domestic titles but failed to win the coveted Champions League.

Rome, May 25 (Ians) Inter Milan retained their Coppa Italia title on Wednesday, collecting their ninth trophy in a 2-1 rally against Fiorentina with Lautaro Martinez netting a brace.
Inter defeated Juventus in last year’s final, clinching their first Coppa Italia trophy since 2011. The last time Fiorentina seized this competition was in 2001. Representatives from both teams had the honour of meeting President Sergio Mattarella at the Quirinal Palace in Rome on the eve of the final.
Fiorentina started the match in the best possible way, taking the lead just three minutes into the game when Jonathan Ikone’s precise pass found Nico Gonzalez, who tapped it in at the back post, reports Xinhua.
Edin Dzeko had a golden opportunity to level the score in the 25th minute when he was sent clear by Lautaro, but the Bosnian’s shot soared over the bar.

Riyadh (Saudi Arabia), Jan 19 (Ians) Inter Milan lifted their seventh Supercoppa trophy as the Nerazzurri defended their title after a comfortable 3-0 win over archrivals AC Milan.
The Supercoppa is a traditional clash between the previous season’s Serie A and Coppa Italia champions. Inter entered Wednesday night’s game as the defending champion and Coppa Italia holders, while AC Milan won the Scudetto last season.
It took just 10 minutes for Inter to break the deadlock in the Milan Derby as a great passing move sliced Milan’s defense apart; when Edin Dzeko flicked on Matteo Darmian’s pass for Nicolo Barella to roll across, unmarked Federico Dimarco drilled it home at the back post.
AC Milan had a chance to level, but Rafael Leao saw his curler palmed away by goalkeeper Andre Onana, while at the other end, Inter doubled the lead in the 20th minute when Dzeko committed...

Bergamo (Italy), Nov 13 (Ians) Edin Dzeko struck a double as Inter Milan ended their Serie A engagements before the FIFA World Cup break the way they would have liked it — with a hard-fought 3-2 win against Atalanta.
While Dzeko scored a brace on his 250th Serie A appearance, Palomino scored at both ends and Onana made some important saves in the Nerazzurri goal as Inter survived some anxious moments before the emerging winner.
With Rafael Toloi picking up an injury in the warm-up, Jose Luis Palomino took his place in the Atalanta starting line-up and went on to be heavily involved in a match that the hosts started aggressively.
Gasperini’s side went man-to-man all over the pitch, playing with a really high press. It was enough to prevent Inter from putting any kind of dangerous moves together, at least in the first 30 minutes.

Rome (Italy), Nov 10 (Ians) Inter Milan bounced back from their Derby d’Italia defeat as they came recovered from an early setback to crush Bologna 6-1 in Italy’s Serie A.

Berlin, Nov 2 (Ians) For the second time in a row Bayern Munich advanced with a flawless record into the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League after beating Inter Milan 2-0 in on Group C’s final matchday on Tuesday.
Inter made a lively start on the road and produced the first chance of the match with seven minutes played when Nicolo Barella tested Bayern goalkeeper Sven Ulreich with a long-range effort.
Despite five changes to the starting 11, Bayern controlled possession but still Inter posed more threat in front of goal, as Lautaro Martinez pulled over from a promising position in the 27th minute.
Bayern eventually stunned Inter with the opener in the 35th minute after Benjamin Pavard nodded home Joshua Kimmich’s corner.
The hosts should have added more goals to their lead, but Sadio Mane and Kingsley Coman couldn’t beat Inter goalie Andre Onana before the half-time whistle.

France v Honduras - 8pm on BBC
Argentina v Bosnia - 11pm on ITV
Match of the Day - Argentina vs Bosnia-Herzegovina
It's another exciting late night kick-off tonight as hot favourites Argentina take on one of Europe's most successful nations in qualifying, Bosnia.
If this Argentina team play to their potential it's difficult to imagine how they could not be at the very least in the final come the end of the tournament. Their forward line is menacing and if Messi finally finds a way to click for the national team in the way that he does for Barcelona, then they should be unstoppable.
Bosnia should have enough to stop this being a first round pasting - it's their first ever World Cup finals, so it would be a...
