? Inter – Barça: Italian victory for the Nerrazzurri!

The poster for the evening in the Champions League saw Inter Milan and FC Barcelona oppose Guiseppe Meazza. Yet in difficulty in the league, the Interistes managed to put Barça in difficulty in the first period. While a very slight offside allowed Eric Garcia to avoid conceding a penalty (24′), a new offside this time saved the Blaugranas from the opener signed by Correa. After two free warnings, Hakan Calhanoglu fired a low shot from the edge of the area and allowed Inter to lead at the break (45+2′)! 1 – 0 at halftime for the Milanese club. In the second half, Xavi’s men managed to keep possession while speeding up the game. Ousmane Dembélé even found the post on the hour mark (61′). A few moments later, Barça believe equalize thanks to Pedri but the referee cancels the goal after consulting the VAR. Ansu Fati indeed seems to have touched the ball with his hand (67 ‘). Going forward, the Catalans will continue to come up against a wall. Gradually, Inter gained confidence and left less and less crumbs to their opponent, evidenced by the great discretion of Robert Lewandowski in the second period. The Milanese will be content to defend André Onana’s goal admirably until the final whistle. Victory to the Italian Nerazzurri who won 1 – 0. Too shy despite possession in the first period in particular, FC Barcelona may have regrets and chained a second defeat in a row in the competition. 3 points that will cost in this infernal group C.
