39-year-old Ramos set the oldest goal record! Lautaro Cradle celebrates equalization, Inter Milan misses opportunities 1-1 Monterrey

A seemingly a contest with huge strength, but quietly unfolds the most moving script of football. Monterrey, whose value is ten times different, finally shook hands with Inter Milan 1-1. The moment when the score card solidifies, there is no absolute winner, but it is full of football life worth savoring.

First half: The symphony of veteran legend and unyielding response

competition was not the smoothest as Inter Milan expected. The soldiers of Monterrey, like fighters guarding their homes, gave the star-studded Blue and Black Legion a warning with their tight formations and tireless running. In the 25th minute, a moment destined to be recorded in history was born. When the corner kick cut through the night sky, 39-year-old Sergio Ramos was like a lion who broke free from the shackles of time, overwhelmed the defense and smashed the ball into the net! The stands were instantly boiling. At the age of 39 years and 80 days, this veteran not only broke Zanetti's record and became the oldest goal scorer in the Club World Cup, but also told the world with his actions: love and persistence are enough to make time bow down. The cheers of Monterrey fans are the highest tribute to a veteran's unyielding soul.

However, Inter Milan, an eagle from Milan, has pride in its bones. The loss of the ball did not make them mess up, but instead aroused the fighting spirit in their blood. Their response came before halftime. Lautaro, the "bulldog" from Inter Milan's forward, got a chance to set the ball at the front of the penalty area. The young Aslani did not have stage fright, and found Augusto at the back point with a precise arc. The latter understood the cross-passing pass in front of the door and rushed to Lautaro, who arrived at the horse, and achieved it in one go! 1-1! After scoring the goal, he excitedly made a cradle-shaking celebration - this was not only an equalizer, but also a passionate love dedicated to a newborn from a distance. At that moment, the smoke on the football field was instantly softened by the warmth of the family. This goal also continued his hot form - the 9th goal in 9 international games in 2025! What is more worth mentioning is that this is the 43rd time Inter Milan scored through set pieces this season. This data is outstanding in the five major leagues, and set pieces have really become their "magic weapon" to attack the city and the village.

Second half: The goal post sighs and fate are intertwined again, and the script becomes more and more exciting. Inter Milan has the advantage in possession of the ball (60% of the game), but it seems to be in the vicious circle of "being strong but not scoring", and he always lacks some excitement after a kick. Monterrey's goalkeeper Andrada turned into a "wall of sighs" as if he had opened a trap. The most regrettable moment happened in the 28th minute, Augusto made a wonderful pass, and the young player Esposito's shot was so close that it was resolved by Andrada with an incredible reaction! Inter Milan was filled with regret on the bench.

The balance on the football field sometimes sways in a tiny slight. In the 64th minute, Monterrey's Canales made a powerful long shot and hit the post! Inter Milan escaped, and Sommer breathed a sigh of relief - a few minutes ago, he also resolved the danger caused by a slightly embarrassed mistake of veteran Archerby.

And the nights belonging to Lautaro are intertwined with joy and regret. In the 67th minute, he once picked the ball into the net, but unfortunately the lineman raised the flag and signaled that he was offside first, and he was so happy. The greater regret came in the 77th minute, and he got an excellent opportunity near the penalty spot. If he could seize it, he would almost be a perfect winner! Unfortunately, the ball slipped past the door. At that moment, he sighed to the sky, and Inter Milan's new coach Ziwo (substituting the departure Inzagi) on the sidelines could not hide his loss - his first appearance in Blue and Black coaching was only one goal away from perfection.

After the game: The blue and black at the intersection and the eternal charm of football

The final whistle sounded, and the score of 1-1 was frozen. Looking at the group standings, Han Pak temporarily ranked first in Group E with a 3-1 victory over Urawa Red Diamonds, with Monterrey following with 1 point, with Urawa at the bottom. For Inter Milan, the initiative to qualify in the group has not been lost, but the road to the knockout round has suddenly become narrow and rugged. The direct dialogue with the South American mighty Riverbed in the last round has become a decisive battle that cannot be lost. Once a mistake is made, this giant club that carries a profound history and fans' expectations will face the embarrassing situation of being eliminated in the group. This is undoubtedly another heavy blow after the UEFA Champions League final this season and the Serie A's championship. The fans' worries were written on their faces, and some people began to mutter: Is the tactic a bit "old-tongued" and lacks some new ideas? The burden on Coach Ziwo's shoulders instantly became much heavier. On the front line, Taremi was stranded at home for some reason and was unable to rush to help, which made the offensive choices stretched. On June 21, against Urawa Red Diamonds, the Blue and Blacks must recover the lost "goal key" as soon as possible. Where is

Montrey? They can leave with their heads high. Using resources far lower than the opponent, he played a respectable team football. Ramos' old age and stronger, Andrada's brave save, and the team's united defense all interpret the simple truth that "unity is strength". They prove that in the world of football, strength on paper is not everything, and determination and wisdom can win respect as well.
