Inter Milan defeated Barcelona by only one goal lead. The goal was from Hakan Kahanoglu, a Turkish footballer. This was the only goal in this match. Before this match, Inter Milan didn't see any win against Barcelona in their last five meetings with four defeat and one drawn. The last time Inter Milan defeated Barcelona as at 2010 with Morinho as their coach when they won their last UCL trophy. The last time Inter faced Barcelona was at 2018. That time they also defeated by Barcelona. In that match Barca coach Valverde played the 2nd team and even then they managed to win. So before that match against last night, Inter was mentally pressured. But they overcome this and manage to win this time.

This was a very crucial game for both the team. This group is the death group this time. In this group, Bayern, Barca and Inter are fighting. Bayern have already doen their 95% job to go next round. So one of Inter or Barca will be companion with Bayern and other will go to Europa league. Barca demoted to Europa last season. So this time it will be very tough to bear if they also demote to Europa this time. So it was very crucial game for both the team.

There was a very much lack from Xavi's technique. I always criticised the team selection of Xavi. In last night he played Raphinha in left side. As a result he was very damn in this match.Most of the Barca players were passing to dembele to create chances from RW. But Inter defenders manage to control all the crosses from Dembele. Moreover Dembele lost the possession 38 times in this match. That was very bad. When Xavi saw that his 1st strategy didn't work, everyone thought that may be this time he applied his 2nd strategy. But he didn't. If so running, I am not hoping anything better from Barca.

Anyway there are more three games in hand of every time. Let's wait to see what happened at last. Thank you.
