In the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Barcelona faced Serie A powerhouse Inter Milan at home. Before the game, both the fans and the media were almost optimistic that Barcelona could win the game, but they didn't expect that they almost capsized. Inter Milan started 20 minutes into the game, with Toulam Jr. and Dumfries scoring two goals in a row, forcing Barcelona at home into a desperate situation, and then Ferrantors and Yamal equalized. After returning from the first half, Dumfries and Rafinia made an own goal. The game ended and Barcelona drew 3:3 with Inter Milan.

An unexpected first half

An unexpected start! Just 30 seconds into the game, Inter Milan's first wave of offense achieved results. After a series of passes, Turam scored on the heel, 0:1! Barcelona, ​​who was behind, then started a crazy offensive. In the 12th minute, Yamal sent out a very threatening pass. Ferrantores in the penalty area made his strong shot slightly missed the goal! Inter Milan, who was passive, rewrites the score again in the 21st minute, and the corner kick was sent to the penalty area. Dumfries volleyed and scored, 0:2! Just three minutes later, Yamal used his personal ability to challenge Inter Milan's entire defense in the frontcourt, shot from the far corner in the penalty area, hit the post and bounced into the goal, 1:2! Barcelona wins a game back. Barcelona, ​​which showed its momentum, continued to attack with all its strength, and Yamal hit the crossbar again and Olmo was saved!

In the 36th minute, Barcelona intercepted the ball in the frontcourt, Yamal passed back in the back triangle, and Olmo, who followed, shot hard, was once again saved by Sommer! Just one minute later, Pedri sent into the penalty area, Rafinia headed the ball to the middle of the penalty area, and Ferrantores, who followed, easily pushed the ball, 2:2! Barcelona equalized the score. But Conde was accidentally injured and replaced by Eric Garcia in advance. At the end of the half game, the two teams fought 2:2.

Halftime rating

The first half was completely unexpected, Inter Milan was not favored and dribbled into the court! Directly fill the overall game rhythm in advance. Then, taking advantage of the corner kick opportunity, Dumfries expanded his advantage and directly forced Barcelona into a desperate situation. However, it is also true that in the face of the opponent's crazy offensive, Inter Milan failed to defend the city and was tied by the opponent.

Being restricted by the recent intensive schedule, Barcelona said before the game that they would control the rhythm as much as possible, but unexpectedly, they lost two goals in a row in 20 minutes, which completely disrupted the arrangement before the game. Faced with Inter Milan's intensive defensive formation, Yamal used his personal ability to almost break through the defense of Dimarco, Bastoni and Mkhitaryan! It was this strong point that helped the team equalize the score. During the half-time break, Inter Milan must focus on defense and strengthen the quality of counterattacks. And Barcelona will inevitably continue to push the ball with all their strength on the offensive end, after all, winning is the ideal result. However, how to prevent the opponent's counterattack and everyone's physical fitness issues are something Frick and the players should pay attention and plan in advance. In the second half of the

midfielder returned from the midfield, both teams had personnel adjustments. Hrad Martin was replaced by Araujo, while Lautaro, who was somely strained, was replaced by Taremi. In the 49th minute, Inter Milan counterattacked to the frontcourt, and Dimarco at the back point shot high without defending. Barcelona remained at a high pressure in the frontcourt, but unexpectedly in the 64th minute, Inter Milan took advantage of the corner kick again, and Dumfries headed the ball to score 2:3! Two minutes later, Barcelona also took advantage of the corner kick opportunity. Rafinia outside the penalty area shot a long time, hit the crossbar and bounced on Sommer's body and rolled into the goal, 3:3!

The two teams continued to replace players, and Fermin and Vlatesi appeared one after another. In the 75th minute, Inter Milan made a simple pass and went directly to the frontcourt. The cross from the sideline made a cross, and Mkhitaryan scored, but the VAR replay showed that Mkhitaryan was offside, with only one toe! Too regretful.

In the 77th minute, Yamal broke through and was directly knocked down. Barcelona won a very good position kick. Rafinia's direct shot was saved by Somer. Yamal's wonderful hanging shot hit the crossbar, Rafinia's long-range shot was saved, Inter Milan withstood the pressure, and the draw was finally maintained until the end of the game.

Comments after the game

Yamar was very unwilling to give up, while Rafinia sat on the court exhausted. In the entire second half, although Barcelona had the advantage, it has to be said that Inter Milan's counterattack was even more threatening. Several attacks to the frontcourt threatened the goal. Mkhitaryan's goal score was only an offside on the toe, which seemed very regrettable.

Being able to win a draw at Barcelona's home court can be said to have achieved its goal excellently. As for Barcelona, ​​there are still great questions about whether they can win the next round. First of all, can several injured players of the team return to the team in time, such as Lewandowski on the forward line, right back Barde, and Conde's injury, etc. In addition to tactical supplements,

In addition to tactical supplements, there are also physical considerations. After all, the intensive schedule tests Flick's team. This game seems a pity for Barcelona, ​​but it is actually a fair result. On the offensive end, you can almost only rely on Yamal's individual ability to create opportunities. If Kongde cannot return from injury, then Yamal's tactical effect will be reduced in the next round. In addition, whether it is Herad Martin or Inigo on the right side, almost all of them were deliberately targeted by their opponents. Dumfries scored two goals in a row, which was the most embarrassing result.
