Milito opened the scoring for the Italian league and cup holders in the 35th minute and added a second 20 minutes from time to secure the treble for Jose Mourinho's side and give Inter their third Champions League triumph after successes in 1964 and 1965.

Muntari came on as a substitute with 15 minutes to go.

Inter become the first ever Italian side to win the Treble
