Arcelona actively started against Inter and after less than ten minutes Henrich Mkhitaryan had to save the visitors on a Robert Lewandowski header.

Ten minutes later, guest goalkeeper Andre Onana pushed Ousmane Dembele’s great attempt into the corner, his counterpart Marc-André ter Stegen, in turn, knocked out Denzel Dumfries’ attempt. After the pressure, Barcelona got five minutes before half-time when Dembele hit the ball into the net from close range after Sergi Roberto’s sharp pass – 1: 0.

Lautaro Martinez in the 63rd minute deals with the comeback of the score, bringing Inter to 2: 1 with a low shot from the post. In the 82nd minute, Robert Lewandowski equalized, but the drama did not end and Robin Gosens gave the visitors the lead seven minutes later.
