Porto vs. Inter finished goalless, meaning the Nerazzurri qualified for the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time in twelve years by virtue of their 1-0 victory in the first leg. This is what President Steven Zhang had to say after the game:

"It's a great feeling because after so many years of hard work, we're back competing at high levels on the European stage. We're now among the best in Europe, which is where Inter always deserves to be. We're delighted to have helped drive Inter and the city of Milan into this position where we're competing at these levels and playing such prestigious matches. We're motivated to do even better, and, as a Club, we always want to compete at high levels, including in Europe. We want to keep going and will do all that we can in the next round, too."
