From the source

Italy international Alessandro Bastoni was sent off midway through the second half of Inter’s Champions League match against Shakhtar Donetsk in San Siro on Tuesday night after earning two yellow cards in the space of two minutes.

You can follow the action from Wednesday’s Champions League games on the Football Italia Liveblog. It had been a frustrating first hour for the Nerazzurri against Shakhtar: They were the pre-match favourites, had the home advantage but had been unable to find the breakthrough within the first 60 minutes.

Cristian Chivu’s side lost their first two matches of the 2026-27 Champions League campaign and had lost seven of their last eight games in the competition before facing Shakhtar.
