The famous "Inter" club from Milan not only reached the final in the match against "Barcelona" at "San Siro," but also set a financial record in Italian football. The Champions League semi-final return match was recorded as the highest-grossing game in the history of Italian football.
In this contest, "Inter" defeated their opponent 4:3 (7:6 on aggregate) and advanced to the final of European football. A total of 75,504 spectators attended the "San Siro" stadium to watch this dramatic clash live, with 4,253 of them seated in the guest sector.
This historic night brought a significant economic achievement for the club — a total ticket sales of 14.7 million euros was recorded. This is an absolute record for ticket revenue for a single game in Italy.
The previous record also belonged to "Inter." In the Milan derby held in 2023, "Inter" defeated "Milan" 1:0 in the semi-final (3:0 on aggregate) and at that time made a profit of 12.5 million euros from ticket sales.
The new result once again demonstrated the power of the "nerazzurri's" marketing, brand value, and fan base. It also showed that high-level games in Italian football still generate great interest and can be very profitable economically.
As "Inter" prepares for the final against PSG, the club is proving that it belongs to the European elite both on and off the field.
