Inter Milan emerged victorious in a thrilling Champions League semi-final but swiftly shifts focus to the Serie A title race, trailing leaders Napoli. The team reached the Champions League final by defeating Barcelona 7-6 on aggregate, courtesy of Davide Frattesi’s decisive extra-time goal.

Simone Inzaghi plans to rest key players from the Barcelona clash, similar to previous strategic rotations that led to a 1-0 win over Hellas Verona. The upcoming match against Torino will see changes in the lineup, with potential appearances by Marko Arnautovic and Joaquin Correa. Meanwhile, Napoli prepares to host Genoa, facing their own injury challenges.

Inzaghi remains adamant about competing on multiple fronts, dismissing the notion of prioritizing one tournament over another. However, with the Serie A race heating up, both Inter and Napoli are under pressure to secure victories against lower-ranked teams. The upcoming weeks are pivotal for Italy's top clubs as they navigate domestic league and cup ambitions.
