Barcelona supporters were left disappointed and upset following their team’s 4-3 loss to Inter Milan in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, which resulted in a 7-6 aggregate defeat. The match was a thrilling, back-and-forth contest with both sides fully committed across 210 minutes. Inter went ahead on six occasions but struggled to maintain their lead until Davide Frattesi’s goal in extra time secured the victory.

 

A pivotal incident took place when 17-year-old Lamine Yamal was denied a penalty after being brought down by Henrikh Mkhitaryan near the penalty area. Referee Szymon Marciniak initially awarded the penalty, but after a VAR check, he reversed the decision and gave a free kick instead. This was because the foul’s origin was outside the box, and as ESPN rules expert Dale Johnson explained, “For a tackle, it’s the first contact that causes the foul. Continuing contact into the box from a tackle isn’t a penalty.”

 

**Match Highlights:**

 

– **Inter Milan’s Goals:**

– Lautaro Martínez struck in the 21st minute following an excellent team play.

– Hakan Calhanoglu scored a penalty in the 45th minute after Pau Cubarsí fouled Martínez.

– Francesco Acerbi netted in the 93rd minute to force extra time.

– Davide Frattesi delivered the decisive goal in the 99th minute.

 

– **Barcelona’s Goals:**

– Eric Garcia scored the team’s first in the 54th minute with a volley.

– Dani Olmo headed in powerfully in the 60th minute.

– Raphinha found the net in the 87th minute.

 

**After-Match Comments:**

 

– Inter coach Simone Inzaghi applauded his squad’s determination and effort, stating they put in two incredible performances and fully earned the win. “It took a super Inter – a round of applause for these guys, who put in two monstrous performances.”

 

– Barcelona coach Hansi Flick credited Inter for their quality and experience, but also showed confidence in his young team’s potential, vowing they would return stronger next season. “We have a young team and we will improve. Our job is to make this team better and better.”

 

– Inter will play against either PSG or Arsenal in the Champions League final scheduled for May 31 at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany.

Barcelona’s hopes for the Champions League second leg against Inter Milan have been given a timely boost, with Alejandro Balde nearing a return and Robert Lewandowski a potential surprise inclusion in the matchday squad. Balde’s accelerated recovery from a hamstring injury could see him feature against Real Valladolid this weekend as a fitness test, offering a huge lift for Hansi Flick given the defensive frailties shown in the first leg. Meanwhile, while Lewandowski’s fitness remains uncertain, the fact that Barça’s medical team is considering bringing him to Milan as an emergency option underscores how crucial he is to their plans—even at less than 100%. Given the tight 3-3 draw and Koundé’s confirmed absence, these developments could significantly influence Flick’s tactical approach.
