Romelu Lukaku will probably be thinking about this one for a while.
The Inter Milan striker spurned a glorious opportunity to level the Champions League final in the 88th minute of Saturday's match. Lukaku, all alone inside the 6-yard box and with a mostly gaping net in his sight, sent a point-blank header right into the legs of an unwitting Ederson.
That was the closest Inter would come to drawing level, as the Italian club fell to a 1-0 defeat after a spirited effort against Manchester City.
