Lautaro Martinez says Alexis Sanchez's red card against Liverpool was 'the difference' between Inter Milan reaching the quarter-final of the Champions League and crashing out of the competition.
Sanchez was sent off just two minutes after Martinez scored the only goal of the game on Tuesday evening. The Chilean international was given a second yellow for a foul on Thiago Alcantara.
As a result, Simone Inzaghi's side crashed out of the Champions League despite winning the second leg of their last 16 tie at Anfield.

Speaking to Sky Italia after the game, Martinez said: 'We did what we wanted to, we showed character, the desire to go through and when we took the lead in a difficult arena with so much enthusiasm.
