Inzaghi's numbers and a Nerazzurri record: the stats following Inter Milan-Arsenal

Another thrilling evening, a match where the team had to dig in, and a vital win on Inter Milan's Champions League journey. 

There are plenty of stats and interesting facts to come out of the 1-0 victory over Arsenal, which was achieved thanks to Calhanoglu's goal from the penalty spot.

A Nerazzurri record 

For the first time in history, Inter Milan have kept a clean sheet in four consecutive Champions League matches. 

It is testament to the organisation and solidity of the team, which used its experience and showed plenty of determination to close down every space against an Arsenal side with such a dangerous attack. 

In the Champions League this season, only two sides are yet to concede: Inter Milan and Atalanta. Furthermore, the Nerazzurri have won three consecutive European matches without conceding for just the second time in history; they last did so under José Mourinho in 2010.

Calhanoglu flawless

The infallible Hakan Çalhanoglu. Since his arrival at Inter Milan in 2021, the Turk has taken 19 penalties and converted them all, maintaining a perfect 100% record. 

In the same period, no player across the Top 5 European divisions has taken and scored as many spot-kicks without missing a single one. 

Having bagged a total of 30 times, the Nerazzurri No.20 has also been one of the most prolific Serie A midfielders in said period; only Lorenzo Pellegrini (32) has done better.

Champions league sheets under Simone Inzaghi 

Simone Inzaghi likes to emphasise balance and solidity. Since 2021/22, under his leadership, Inter Milan have kept more clean sheets than any other side in the Champions League: 19 in 33 matches (58%). 

An extraordinary stat that highlights the growth of this team.
