At 3 a.m. on May 7, the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals is about to begin, with Inter Milan playing against Barcelona at home. The two teams drew 3-3 in the first leg, making this second leg full of suspense. Inter Milan player Young Bissek said the team will be fully prepared for the final.
In the Champions League, Inter Milan is seeking a third reorganized final journey after they reached the finals in 2010 and 2023. If Barcelona advances, it will be their sixth final after the reform. The importance the two teams attach to the Champions League can be seen from the personnel arrangements of the domestic league. In the league last weekend, only 3 of the 22 starters in the first leg continued to start.
Inter Milan has had ups and downs in recent years, but they have performed well in the Champions League home, unbeaten in 15 consecutive games, winning nine of San Siro's 11 European semi-finals. But the captain and top scorer Lautaro was suspected of playing in the next round due to a muscle injury. Even so, when Lautaro failed to score in the first leg, Inter Milan scored 3 goals, Dumfries scored twice, and Turam Jr. scored one minute into the opening game. If they scored again in the next round, they would set a new record since Jaccento-Fachetti in the 1966-67 season.
On the other side, Barcelona also faces personnel problems. The top scorer Lewandows missed many games with a hamstring injury. Although he is expected to return, given the excellent form of Ferran Torres, his starting position is doubtful. Ferran performed well when Lewandowski was absent, scoring 19 goals in all competitions this season and an average of goals every 92 minutes.
Barca is undoubtedly the offensive team in the Champions League this season, with 40 goals, only 5 goals away from its 45-goal record set in the 1999-2000 season. But their defense sometimes has problems. Although Inter Milan performed poorly at the end of April, its strength should not be underestimated.
Judging from the history of the confrontation, this is the 18th time between the two teams in the European war, and the duel frequency is quite high. Both of the last two encounters have been 3-3 draws. Barcelona has a poor record against Inter Milan away from the Champions League, winning only one game in six games, and only five away games in Italy's 24 Champions League games, with a winning rate of only 21%.
According to the well-known data organization Opta, the probability of Barcelona advancing to the final is 56%, which is even more optimistic. But Inter Milan player Bisek's statement shows the team's determination. They will not give up easily and will do their best to strive to enter the finals with the cheers of home fans. Who can finally laugh and advance to the finals successfully, let us wait and see. Follow me to learn more hot information and witness the wonderful moments on the Champions League.
