Inter ended their group stage campaign with a goalless draw against Real Sociedad. It means that the Nerazzurri have progressed to the knockouts as the second-place side from Group D. Both Inzaghi's men and the Spaniards picked up twelve points, but the latter finished top by virtue of their better goal difference. Indeed, Inter scored eight and conceded five (+3), while Real Sociedad found the net seven times and shipped just two goals (+5).

In the draw on Monday 18 December, the Nerazzurri will thus be paired with one of the seven other group winners.
