Inter cares for the feat, but Lewandowski freezes the enthusiasm of the Nerazzurri supporters in full recovery.
In Barcelona it ends 3 to 3 with as many goals starting from the 82nd.
A draw on Catalan soil was anything but modest, but the illusion of victory leaves Inter with a bad taste: with the 3 points in their pockets, Inzaghi's men would have mortgaged the passage of the round.
In the tenth, on the development of a corner, Lewandowksi hits the head at the far post, but Mkhitaryan rejects on the goal line.
Seven minutes later a great chance for Inter: free kick by Calhanoglu who catches Dzeko in the middle of the area: the Bosnian in precarious balance does the maximum, but the ball hits the crossbar and then slams on the line;
De Vrij then fails to reiterate on goal.
At the 28th new opportunity for the Nerazzurri: Barella burns Gavi and carries the ball up to 25 meters, then passes to Dumfries who tries the right, but his conclusion is rejected with the chest by the Spanish goalkeeper Ter Stegen.
At 37th is Barcelona and being able to take the lead.
Lewandowski crosses with the left, perfect ball for Raphinha;
ball to the side of a breath with the goalkeeper Onana immobile.
Just three minutes pass and the Blaugrana score.
Raphina's perfect filter for Sergi Roberto who puts in the middle for Dembelè: all easy for the Catalan striker.
With a lob from the same Brazilian assist-man, Barcelona immediately tries to double, but the ball ends up on the side for a short time.
In the second half, the shower of goals was the protagonist, no less than five.
Inter draw in the 50th: Piquè's defensive naivety who keeps Barella in play and lets the ball flow: he stops the Inter number 23 who strikes Ter Stegen at the near post.
At the 63rd Nerazzurri advantage.
Stop by Lautaro Martinez who mocked Garcia and then hit right: pole - pole and ball in the net.
A little less than twenty minutes later comes the tie of the hosts.
Clumsy intervention by De Vrij who actually serves Lewandowski;
his left is deflected by Bastoni who displaces an innocent Onana.
In the 89th, Inzaghi's team took the lead with Gosens, but the Polish striker of the blaugrana returned to extinguish the joy of the Nerazzurri by signing the final 3 to 3 in the 92nd.
5 minutes after the Inter coach, who demanded the end of the match,
is expelled.
Only at the 98th does the triple whistle of Mr. Marciniak arrive.
