WHAT HAPPENED?
The rap legend made an impromptu appearance at the Nerazzurri’s 1-0 home victory over Atletico on Wednesday, watching on as Inter took a narrow advantage into their Champions League last-16 second leg. West did, however, appear in a completely blacked out mask to hide his identity in a wardrobe choice he has adopted at recent events. Inter’s rivals Milan couldn’t resist a cheeky dig, claiming the likes of Dua Lipa, Tom Cruise and Will Smith were in attendance at their training centre in similar masked outfits.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Despite Milan’s jokey post, West’s appearance at San Siro was genuine. The American rapper featured after recently collaborating with Inter’s Curva Nord ultras for two tracks on his latest ‘Vultures 1’ album alongside Ty Dolla Sign. The Italy links also extend to wife Bianca Censori, who is of Italian-Australian heritage.
WHAT NEXT FOR INTER?
With West watching on from afar, Serie A’s runaway leaders again got the business done on the continental stage. They narrowly missed out on a fourth European crown in last year’s final to Manchester City.
