Inter were held to a stalemate by Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday evening. It leaves the Italian club with just two points after two games in their Champions League group.

The visitors dominated from the onset but failed to make their overwhelming superiority count in the opening period. Both Nicolo Barella and Romelu Lukaku were denied by the crossbar.
