Yamal Gets 9.5, Garcia With 8 | Barcelona Players Rated In Tough Loss Vs Inter Milan

Barcelona clashed heads with Inter Milan at San Siro earlier tonight as they hoped to secure a win in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League semifinal tie. The Catalan club made a poor start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the 21st minute when Lisandro Martinez found the back of the net. Inter doubled their advantage in the 45th minute thanks to Hakan Calhanoglu’s penalty as Hansi Flick’s men went into the half-time break 2-0 down on the scoreline.

Eric Garcia got a goal back for Barcelona in the 54th minute before Dani Olmo equalised for the visitors just six minutes later. Raphinha gave the Catalan giants the lead in the 87th minute but Francesco Acerbi equalised for Inter in injury time which took the game to extra time.
