Dimarco Shines as Captain in Signal Iduna Park Triumph

Match Report: Borussia Dortmund 0-2 Inter Milan
Inter dominated possession and created several chances in the first half but only broke the deadlock late. Dimarco’s set-piece quality proved decisive, and substitute Andy Diouf wrapped up the win with his first UEFA Champions League goal for Inter after coming off the bench.
Goals and Key Moments
Dimarco’s 81st-minute free-kick found the net to give Inter the lead. Later, Diouf capitalised on momentum to score the second, ensuring a clean sheet in a high-profile away victory.
Chivu’s First Big Win and Team Momentum
The result represents the first major scalp under coach Cristian Chivu and suggests Inter may be shedding a recent “big game” hoodoo. Confidence from this performance could prove important heading into the knockout playoff round.
Competition Standings and European Outlook
Despite the victory, Inter missed out on a top-eight finish, ending 10th in the 36-team table and a point behind eighth-placed Manchester City. The team will therefore continue its European campaign via the knockout playoff route.
Betting and Tactical Implications
Punters should note Inter’s renewed set-piece threat and defensive solidity shown in Dortmund. Reasonable markets include Inter to progress in the playoff, Inter clean sheet, Dimarco anytime scorer or set-piece scorer, and Diouf as a substitute/goalscorer option given his late impact.
