Inter Milan reach Champions League quarters with 0-0 draw at Porto

Lautaro Martinez and Mateus Uribe vie for the ball

Inter Milan reached the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time in more than a decade after surviving a late barrage of pressure at Porto to escape with a 0-0 draw which took them through 1-0 on aggregate on Tuesday.

It was a disappointing night for the home fans at a sold-out Dragao stadium as the Portuguese champions tried in vain to wipe out the narrow deficit from the first leg in Italy.

A disciplined Inter side seemed content to hold onto their lead and did not face a serious threat until added time.

Porto then struck the woodwork twice within 30 seconds before Pepe were sent off for a second yellow card as Inter joined city rivals AC Milan in the quarter-final draw.
