At the start of the second half, Nottingham Forest tightened their defense. Inter Milan, on the other hand, took advantage of the fact that they were kicking off to launch a fierce attack on the Forest team.
Ibrahimović had a shot from inside the penalty area which struck the goalpost and bounced away. The Forest players were so startled that they broke into a cold sweat.
Following this, there was a moment of chaos in front of goal, with Rossi falling to the ground and the ball being taken by the goalkeeper, Akinfeev. The Inter Milan players immediately raised their hands to signal a foul by the Nottingham Forest players, which should result in a penalty kick. The Nottingham Forest players also raised their hands to show their innocence.
The referee made his own judgment and he gestured for Rossi to get up. Deafening boos broke out at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.
