European champions Inter Milan swept into the final of the Club World Cup with a convincing 3-0 semi-final defeat of Asian counterparts Seongnam Ilhwa here last night.
Inter welcomed Julio Cesar, Cristian Chivu and Milito back from injury, but Dutch playmaker Wesley Sneijder had to go off after appearing to injure his left hamstring inside the first 30 seconds.
Sneijder had barely disappeared down the tunnel when veteran Serbian midfielder Dejan Stankovic put Inter ahead.
Seongnam were unable to react to the setback and in the 32nd minute Inter doubled their lead in stylish fashion.
Captain Javier Zanetti flicked the ball to Milito and drove into the box before receiving Milito's expertly directed back-heel and guided the ball beyond Seongnam goalkeeper Jung Sung-Ryong.
