How Inter overpowered Barcelona
In the 5th minute, Lamine Yamal is fouled by Federico Dimarco, who later recovers to challenge the 17-year-old. Two minutes later, Dimarco is fouled by Eric Garcia, but the resulting free kick is played back to restart possession.
Forward Marcus Thuram breaks through Barcelona's defenders and gets a one-on-one with Wojciech Szczesny, but is ruled offside in the 14th minute. Two minutes later, Thuram receives the ball on the edge of the area, but it's a poor shot which drags wide of the post.
Inter Milan mount more pressure on Barcelona as Henrikh Mkhitaryan bolts down the left-hand side and whips the ball across for Lautaro Martinez, but it's deflected out in the 18th minute.
Captain Lautaro Martinez gave Inter Milan a deserved lead in the 21st minute, converting Denzel Dumfries' square pass with goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny off his line.
Hakan Calhanoglu converted a penalty just before halftime, calmly slotting the ball into the bottom left corner and sending the goalkeeper the wrong way in the 45th minute.
The penalty was awarded after referee Szymon Marciniak confirmed a VAR check for a foul on Lautaro Martinez by Pau Cubarsí in the 44th minute.
In the second half, Eric Garcia reduced the deficit for Barcelona in the 54th minute, firing in a volley from a cross by Gerard Martin from the left-hand side.
Six minutes later, Gerard Martin provided his second assist of the game, setting up Dani Olmo for a powerful header that gave Barcelona a lifeline.
Raphinha scored Barcelona's third goal in the 88th minute, before Francesco Acerbi equalised for Inter in the 93rd minute.
Davide Frattesi scored in the 99th minute to make it 4-3, finishing off a brilliant play by Marcus Thuram to send San Siro into a frenzy.
