Raphinha and Sommer Prevent Barcelona from Falling Behind!
Barcelona responded to Inter Milan’s second goal with a brilliant free-kick from Raphinha, which resulted in an own goal by Yann Sommer.
According to reports, Raphinha once again shone for Barcelona and did not allow Inter Milan’s lead in the second half to last long.
The first leg of the UEFA Champions League semifinal between Barcelona and Inter Milan has been as thrilling as possible. The match started with two sudden goals from Inter, scored by Marcus Thuram and Denzel Dumfries, but Lamine Yamal and Ferran Torres equalized before halftime.
However, Inter took the lead again early in the second half, with Denzel Dumfries heading the ball past Wojciech Szczęsny. This goal was quickly answered by Raphinha’s stunning strike.
In the 65th minute, just one minute after Dumfries’ goal, Barcelona won a corner. The ball was sent low to the edge of the box, where Yamal let it run for Raphinha to take a first-time shot. His effort hit the crossbar but rebounded off the back of Yann Sommer, who had dived, and into the net.
