00:00
Extraordinary game. Thanks so much to Gary and to Rob.
00:03
As Rob mentioned there, Inter Milan did beat Barcelona in one of the most famous semifinals ever back in 2010.
00:10
But that was a very different second leg, a 1-0 affair that Jose Mourinho described as the most beautiful defeat of his career.
00:17
They weren't beaten tonight. They dug this out. They won by four goals to three.
00:21
They've actually conceded more goals in these two matches, that's six, than they had in the entirety of the competition up until this point.
00:27
They'd only conceded five in 12 games. Kenny, how do you begin to explain how Inter have come through that?
00:32
Shay?
00:37
Where to start was engrossing from start to finish. The beauty of this game for me was actually in its imperfection.
00:43
I'm not going to say this game was perfect from start to finish at all levels of the game.
00:47
There was moments of individual brilliance. We were pulling our hair out at times.
00:53
There was real kind of Evan flowed to the game. Huge amount of character showed from both sets of players, I'd have to say that.
01:01
Young, Jamal, for me, this evening, oh, and he's actually gone up in my estimations.
01:06
We know how good he is in terms of a footballer.
01:09
Well, we've seen tonight in terms of what a strong character he is in terms of personality.
01:14
Because 15 minutes into the second half, his game was falling apart, Jamal, he couldn't do anything right.
01:19
And it almost felt as if single-handedly he brought Barcelona back into this game.
01:23
But ultimately, for me, on the fundamentals of the game over the years haven't changed.
01:27
It's basically how effective you are in possession and out-possession of the football.
01:31
Were Barcelona effective in possession over these two legs? Absolutely scored six goals.
01:36
Out-possession, not good enough.
01:38
Shay?
01:40
You've had time to think about it now.
01:41
I don't know where he starts.
01:42
I mean, Rafinha scored in the 89th minute and you thought it was good night, Vienna.
01:45
You thought Inter Milan were out of the competition.
01:47
Even some of the Inter Milan fans left.
01:49
You could see the concourse getting full up with fans leaving.
01:51
The fans believed.
01:53
But I'll tell you what, these players believed.
01:54
And a Cherby to turn up in the 93rd minute.
01:57
A Cherby who's 37 years of age, by the way, in a heavy swamp pitch legat.
02:01
And the finish, by the way, to make it free-free to go the extra time from a 37-year-old centre-half, not a centre-forward.
02:07
But it's just phenomenal.
02:09
The game and everything, we talk about, I know the guys, probably the goal scorers will get a lot of the headlines.
02:13
But Jan Sommer as well, as an ex-goalkeeper myself, some of the saves were just phenomenal.
02:17
They really were.
02:18
I mean, high-end saves.
02:20
No, you know, some goalkeepers would never get anywhere near them.
02:23
So he deserves great credit as well.
02:25
I mean, Martinez, we didn't think should start, didn't look fit.
02:27
Got a goal and I think an assist as well, won the penalty, didn't he?
02:30
So I don't know where to start.
02:32
I've got that much paper written, that much stuff.
02:34
The guys have done no homework.
02:34
I think I've done too much homework.
02:36
I've had so many goals, so much talking points.
02:38
Well, I was going to say, I wouldn't be pushing Ontario Martinez too hard there
02:40
if you wanted to be fit for the semi-final, or for the final.
02:42
Because he didn't look 100% today, but he was still centrally involved in the first half.
02:46
You've got a lot of time for that man, Kenny, that young man,
02:48
who did his best tonight in trying circumstances.
02:51
But, Neil, ultimately Inter Milan got over the line in extra time.
02:55
So why don't we start there?
02:56
And the fact that they showed the composure,
02:58
the one moment of composure with Fertese scoring the winner.
03:01
Yeah, I mean, it's a well-worked goal.
03:02
It's poor.
03:03
Listen, you know, my tip was Inter to get through,
03:07
but certainly not in the way that I would have imagined this tie to go.
03:11
And, you know, I'm going to sound like the Grinch here,
03:13
but Barcelona have snatched...
03:15
Don't do it, Lenny.
03:15
Don't do it.
03:16
They've snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
03:19
Their game management was poor, Owen.
03:20
They've all the talent, they've all the attacking talent.
03:23
They've scored six goals, but they're still out of the competition
03:26
because they can't defend.
03:29
And, yeah, I mean, it's a great way to watch football at times,
03:32
but when you come up against a team as street smart as Inter Milan
03:35
and street savvy, you're going to get done,
03:38
and that's what's happened to them tonight.
03:40
And credit to Inzaghi and his men.
03:42
You know, they're stuck at it, stuck at it,
03:44
but they were second best for long, long periods of the evening.
03:47
And football's a cruel mistress sometimes,
03:51
and they've got a lot to learn in Barcelona from this.
03:53
Yeah, there is the odd occasion when you're doing this kind of work
03:56
where you're kind of scratching around for things to talk about post-match.
03:58
But as Shea said, there's a lot to get...
03:59
We're trying to get through as many of Shea's notes as we can
04:01
after the break, because it was a pretty good first half,
04:04
certainly by Inter Milan.
04:06
It was a ridiculously exciting second half,
04:08
especially the last five, ten minutes,
04:09
and it kept going in extra time.
04:12
Inter Milan ultimately are through to the final again.
04:20
Here we go.
04:22
The Champions!
04:27
The Champions!
04:28
The Champions!
04:52
From quarter past three on Sunday.
04:54
W.A. Fertese got the late winner
04:56
in the first leg of the quarterfinal in Munich
04:58
that was ultimately enough
04:59
to get them through to the semifinal.
05:02
And he scored the final one of 13 goals
05:05
over the course of two incredible legs
05:07
to qualify them for the Champions League final.
05:11
And another iconic Italian football celebration
05:13
to match, I think, there from Fertese.
05:16
So,
05:17
the start there, I guess, Shea.
05:19
The winning goal.
05:20
Yeah, and work her way back from there.
05:22
Yeah, exactly.
05:22
Yeah, why not?
05:23
Because there's a lot to get through.
05:24
Yeah, I mean, it's a fully deserved,
05:26
actually, victory in the end,
05:26
I think, chance whatsoever.
05:28
Corbazio, look back at that
05:29
and you're absolutely right.
05:30
Maybe take one big step forward,
05:31
force him into having another touch.
05:33
But,
05:34
always,
05:35
we're always,
05:35
stop the danger at source
05:37
and Arugio there,
05:39
he's got,
05:40
Turam going in the opposite direction,
05:41
he's got him heading towards
05:42
the touchline there.
05:43
How he allows him to get turned
05:45
and drive on the inside back into the box,
05:47
it's almost unforgivable.
05:48
I have to say,
05:49
I did like the composure, though.
05:50
Not much composure in the celebration, Neil,
05:51
but just to take that extra little touch,
05:53
that extra half a second
05:54
and then curl the finish in.
05:57
He sort of sold the dummy
05:58
and then use Carbassio as a,
05:59
you know,
06:00
a block for the goalkeeper.
06:02
For the shield, yeah.
06:03
Yeah, and just bend it around him
06:04
and it was a brilliant finish.
06:06
But,
06:06
Kenny's right,
06:06
she's never got that position.
06:08
Symptomatic of Barcelona
06:09
over the two legs.
06:10
Inter Milan were
06:12
2-0 up at half-time.
06:13
Not for long, though,
06:14
because Barcelona came out,
06:16
we were half expecting,
06:17
maybe fully expecting.
06:18
Not under a huge amount of pressure,
06:19
but had to keep his concentration
06:20
just arrowed into the corner.
06:22
And at that point,
06:23
he just felt as if
06:24
all the forward momentum
06:26
was behind Barcelona.
06:27
I think you felt that as well.
06:28
You know,
06:28
you're the only one here
06:29
to predict Inter
06:30
to go through tonight,
06:31
but you had your doubts
06:31
at that stage?
06:32
Oh, no question.
06:34
I mean,
06:34
everything was with
06:35
Barca.
06:37
Martinez was struggling.
06:39
You know,
06:39
Mkhitaryan was starting to struggle
06:41
just through the legs.
06:43
Cana Lugge,
06:44
who was struggling.
06:44
There had no momentum
06:45
in the game,
06:46
Inter,
06:46
and it was just all about
06:47
could they hold Barcelona out?
06:49
But Barcelona
06:49
are too good
06:51
to be held out
06:51
for such a length of time
06:53
and,
06:53
you know,
06:53
they had great chances
06:54
on to win the game
06:56
by more.
06:56
You know,
06:57
and then the third goal
06:58
did come for them
06:59
in the 80s.
07:00
Messed at that period of the game.
07:01
Confidence,
07:02
individual like players
07:04
struggling with injury,
07:05
loss of confidence,
07:06
self-belief,
07:07
couldn't make two or three
07:08
quick passes,
07:09
Barcelona swarming
07:10
all over them
07:11
and that was really
07:12
a 3-2.
07:13
It would be difficult
07:13
to make an argument
07:14
at that point.
07:15
You couldn't see,
07:16
you couldn't make an argument
07:17
for Inter Milan
07:18
getting back into that game.
07:19
That's also a feeling
07:19
his 32nd goal of the season
07:21
which is absolutely outrageous.
07:22
21 goals plus assists
07:23
in the Champions League.
07:25
I know, yeah,
07:25
but just to cap it off
07:26
with that moment
07:27
it looked like he redeemed
07:28
as it felt like
07:29
it was a moment for him
07:30
that actually obviously
07:31
we thought of winning
07:31
the game at that stage
07:32
and something Inter Milan
07:33
fans thought the same
07:34
and it would have
07:34
sort of papered over
07:35
probably a poor performance
07:36
from him.
07:37
But it was a great finish
07:37
and Torres on the line
07:38
actually does well
07:39
not sticking a toe wipe
07:40
because he just jumps
07:41
out of the way
07:41
would have been given
07:42
offside of course
07:42
but at that stage
07:44
we thought Barca
07:44
were going for due.
07:45
We did
07:45
but then
07:46
Asherby
07:47
taking a step away from him.
07:49
It's a great finish as well.
07:50
Great finish,
07:50
great finish.
07:51
It's two and a half minutes
07:52
into five minutes
07:53
of injury time.
07:54
You just got to see it out
07:55
you know
07:56
and they don't defend
07:57
that situation
07:58
anywhere well enough.
07:59
We were talking about
08:00
the high line
08:01
and everything
08:01
they weren't doing
08:01
a high line there
08:02
as such.
08:02
No it was just
08:03
the basic
08:04
win the first header.
08:05
Kabassi doesn't win
08:06
the first header.
08:07
Stop the cross.
08:07
Yeah Martin
08:08
just get rid of the ball
08:09
doesn't.
08:09
Tries to take a touch
08:10
gets this possessed.
08:11
Don't get pinned
08:11
one v one in the box.
08:13
Honestly
08:13
keep going.
08:15
It's an easy game.
08:16
Even like
08:16
at the fourth goal
08:17
it's the same.
08:17
You know
08:18
Oryjou gets turned
08:18
they get pinned in the box
08:20
Fratezi gets a shot off.
08:22
Maybe it's an experience
08:23
from some of them
08:23
but it's close to them.
08:24
I was going to offer that
08:24
as an excuse
08:25
they are vastly inexperienced
08:26
in the Barca
08:27
since Inter Milan
08:27
and I think
08:28
De Jong's the only one
08:28
who's ever played
08:29
in a Champions League
08:29
semi-final before
08:30
is that an excuse?
08:32
It's a mitigating circumstance
08:33
there's no question
08:34
Is that not the same thing
08:35
as an excuse?
08:35
I don't know.
08:36
I just used that big word.
08:39
But they've conceded
08:40
seven goals
08:40
you know
08:41
and you're not going to win
08:42
big ties like this
08:43
by conceding seven goals
08:44
it's a great philosophy
08:46
he has
08:47
you know
08:47
the attacking player
08:48
is absolutely brilliant
08:49
but he hasn't got
08:50
the balance right.
08:51
Do they really give
08:52
as much time
08:53
on the training pitch
08:54
Monday to Friday
08:55
we'll never know
08:55
in terms of
08:56
Hansi Flick and his
08:57
coaching staff
08:57
in terms of
08:58
collective defending
08:59
and individual defending
09:00
in your area of the pitch.
09:01
Well he said the word
09:02
structure three times
09:03
in one answer
09:04
in his pre-match
09:04
which I can only think
09:05
that means defensive structure
09:06
as well as offence.
09:07
What about some individual defending?
09:09
Because I look at that
09:10
Kubarsi there
09:11
I think he's a lovely player
09:12
he's got great potential
09:13
he's a very talented kid
09:14
but what kind of information
09:15
what kind of education
09:16
is he getting at that
09:17
football club
09:18
in terms of improving him
09:19
individually
09:20
as a defender?
09:21
I'm not too sure
09:22
I'd question that
09:23
is he really going to improve
09:24
and develop into a world class
09:26
central defender
09:27
at Barcelona?
09:28
I'm not too sure.
09:30
They are so much fun to watch
09:31
though
09:31
and they had so many chances.
09:33
The one from Garcia
09:34
and the one from Jamal
09:35
full stretch to his right
09:37
Don't forget about
09:37
the first leg as well
09:39
sorry Kenny
09:39
but do you remember the save
09:40
not long after Jamal had scored
09:41
that wonder goal
09:41
he nearly got an even better one
09:43
and there was a beautiful
09:45
fingertip save
09:45
onto the crossbar
09:46
by Sommer
09:47
these are the moments
09:47
that seem like
09:48
well again if you look
09:49
over the course of two legs
09:51
Sommer's definitely played his part
09:52
over the two legs
09:52
deserves a lot of credit.
