Denzel Dumfries scored a brace after connecting to a corner kick to give Inter Milan the lead in the 63rd minute.

Barcelona equalised two minutes later courtesy an own goal from Milan's goalkeeper Yann Sommer. Dani Olmo took the corner from the left, playing the ball towards Lamine Yamal outside the box.

The winger dummies and leaves it for Raphinha, who strikes a powerful shot from distance, as the ball hits the crossbar, bounces off Sommer.
