Inter Milan turned a night of tension into a night of triumph, roaring back from two goals down to beat Como and secure a place in the Coppa Italia final.
At the heart of the comeback stood Hakan Calhanoglu, who lit up the San Siro with a decisive brace, before setting up Petar Sucic for the winning goal in a dramatic 3–2 turnaround.
Calhanoglu leads the comeback
Speaking after the match to SportMediaset, Calhanoglu reflected on the team’s resilience:
“We had difficulties, but we know it’s never easy against Como. They can play good football. In the second half, we did what we had to do and changed the game.”

The Turkish midfielder, who even found the net with a header, emphasized the team’s ambitions:
“We want to win trophies. We’re happy to reach the final, but there are still important league matches ahead and we want to finish the job as soon as possible.”
Sucic: ‘Mentality made the difference
Alongside the coach, Petar Sucic also spoke in the post-match press conference, highlighting the team’s reaction after going behind:
“It’s not easy to be two goals down, but we showed strong mentality and came back, just like we did in Como. We believed we could do it.”
Sucic revealed that Cristian Chivu demanded more aggression and speed at halftime:
“He told us we had to be quicker and more aggressive. What happens in the dressing room stays there, but we knew we had the quality. After the first goal, everything changed.”
The Croatian midfielder capped the comeback with the decisive goal, sealing Inter Milan’s place in the final.
From chaos to control, Inter Milan reshaped the match with character and quality.
Now, with a place in the final secured, the Nerazzurri turn their gaze toward silverware, knowing that nights like this can fuel more than just belief.
