Clutch Highlights

UEFA Champions League

Transcript

00:00Good evening from the Olympic Stadium on Montjuic high above the city of Barcelona on a lovely warm

00:09Catalan evening after a sun-drenched day. 25 goals have been scored here in six Champions League games

00:15this season. It's been a joyous place to be and this looks like a classic semi-final first leg

00:20even though the likes of Robert Lewandowski won't be playing. Barcelona in their first semi since

00:242019. They're all about youth and freedom and scoring for fun. Eight of their team, 25 or under.

00:30They've netted 155 goals this season. They won 23 of the last 28 games. That in the Spanish Cup

00:35and a stormy final against Real Madrid at the weekend. Will that have weakened them for tonight?

00:44Won three away games in the Champions League in a row for the first time. Five of their last seven

00:48Champions League knockout stage away games have been won. Now Wiley, Inter Milan, don't rule them out.

01:00I think it goes to the front two who will cause problems. Turam fit again.

01:05Not by Barella. This is her first attack with Dumfries who would love to get forward of course.

01:10And then it goes by the defendable Jules Koundé who's started every Champions League game this season for Barcelona.

01:16Turam with the flick. Inter have scored in 30 seconds. What a start for the Italian side.

01:22Absolutely sensational.

01:24Well, if you said before the game, how would they build an attack? You just saw it there.

01:32Ball goes into Martinez. He flicks it on to Turam. Back to Barella. Out to the wing-back who's breaking

01:38forward down that right-hand side. Yes, they get rid of the first cross, but when it comes back in,

01:43it's a lovely flick from that man there, Turam. And he's been in great form at times this season.

01:49Here's Jamal to take on Di Marpa. He's come all the way through. And wide it goes. And it was a

01:55chance for Ferran Torres. Doesn't always have to beat a player to get a really telling pass or ball into

02:01the box. Just didn't quite get his touch right, did he? And now you can see a chirpy goes to ground and

02:06maybe made it slightly more difficult for Ferran Torres. But had his touch been better, I think he'd have

02:12scored there. Another corner for Barcelona there. Third. As they trail. Bissek away. Oh, just

02:20worried it's a whiplash effort from Ferran Torres. Let me see it again. I wonder if he just slices across

02:27it here, which takes it wider the far post. Great angle. We'll get there. Yeah, just slices across it.

02:32Oh, such a good strike. It's Petri to stretch. Now here's Di Marco. Chase it.

02:40Terrific covering across by Inigo Martinez. What have you made of his season? It's remarkable, isn't it?

02:45Absolutely.

02:48A bit away from his man. It's two now. It's a brilliant effort again. And this time, it comes from the

02:55full-back, Denzil Dumfries, who hooked it on as Barcelona stood, hesitated and watched.

03:01And they're two behind. What a start for Inter.

03:07Here it is.

03:08Acervi wins the first one. Dumfries is alive to the second. Just makes a run into the box.

03:15It's also very good technique.

03:18Pedri was the player that maybe took his head out of the way.

03:21That's been a bit unfair on him. Could he have been braver there? Maybe so.

03:26And Dumfries with a very good finish.

03:28Jamal, wriggling his way through. Oh, it's simply sensational. When he was a doubt,

03:40before kickoff, having picked up, but clearly was an injury in the warm-up. He shrugged it off and

03:45that's what he can do. What a game you have here for you. Barcelona one, Inter Milan two.

03:49Just watch the skill here to go past Mkhitaryan on the edge of the box. When he picks up the ball,

03:55there's so many players in front of him. There's a slight mix-up, as you mentioned, with Koundé.

04:00He turns the first challenge to him. He goes past Mkhitaryan too easily here.

04:04And he just picks his spot. Goes between the two defenders. You don't get any better than that.

04:10Jamal.

04:15Brilliant. Sensational. Off the bar. This is a wonder kid. Well, how did he drag that back onto his left

04:22foot? Di Marco shows him onto his right foot. He thinks he's going to cross it. Goes to ground. He's so

04:28unlucky. And actually, Sommer gets a touch on it. It's a great save from Sommer in the end.

04:34Here's Jamal. From the outside of Di Marco, who's facing the tuck right now.

04:40Patting away. But Ceri got something on it. So she did Barella. And then, once again,

04:46Sommer all you was tidying up. He can go each way. Go either side, Connies.

04:51Well, he can go each way. And he can also play the ball with the outside of his left foot. This time

04:55he plays it with the inside of his right. Sommer gets there before Rafinha, but again,

04:59pushes it out into a dangerous area.

05:04Here's Torres on the outside of the defender. Jamal following him up.

05:10In comes the ball to Olmo. Sommer had to stretch.

05:14They're looking so dangerous now.

05:16Barcelona standing almost on the halfway line. That's the tackle that won the ball back.

05:21And he ended up with this shot from Dani Olmo. Sommer again does well to save.

05:25Turkey with a chip in this. They're set up from Rafinha. It's a brilliant goal.

05:322-2, Ferran Torres. The first was a magnificent solo effort. The second is a brilliant team goal.

05:39Barcelona are two. Inter two. It's a classic.

05:42Rafinha just pulls off the back of Bissek. The run there to Ferran Torres. The header could not have been any better.

05:48And Ferran Torres couldn't really miss, could he? What a first half we've had here.

05:53Now two, Dumfries. The run off him is by Bissek. It's a dangerous ball and it's gone all the way through to Di Marco.

06:04There it is. There's the danger. The timings of the run were good. He just stays on side. Bissek plays it into a good area.

06:15You see the other two players are behind the ball. And on his weaker foot. Big chance.

06:22Just enough there to stop him getting through. Inter.

06:26That's knocked forward. Dumfries has made the run up in support. A big deflection carried it wide and they think it came off an arm again.

06:34It certainly wasn't his arm. It was his leg, wasn't it?

06:40That is where they wanted to handle. That probably was handball.

06:43The VAR couldn't look at it because it was outside the box.

06:49Charolliou with the corner kick.

06:52Go away. Keeper Kane didn't get there. Dumfries.

06:55Inter lead again. And he has to.

06:59This mighty game swings and swings again.

07:07They've scored from three of their four efforts on target.

07:11Well, it's a good delivery. They go to the back post. Dumfries. Good athlete.

07:16It's a good run on it.

07:19And then beats Olmo in the air.

07:21It's a good early jump.

07:23Maybe hits El Rujo on the back as well.

07:27Then he almost trying to get round. There it hits.

07:30El Rujo on the shoulder and into the back of the net.

07:33But it will be Dumfries' goal.

07:35Great determination and they've been much better going forward in the second half.

07:40What a game again.

07:43He's been super for them. How can he get back?

07:45Gather his ground.

07:47Running against Rafinha.

07:51Showing his other quality there.

07:53Saw the opportunity for Barcelona to play the one-two.

07:57Got himself back into a good position.

07:59Olmo will take it.

08:04Jamal steps over it.

08:05It's a great hit! What a goal that is! Rafinha!

08:10It's a game that simply keeps giving.

08:143-3. Stupendous.

08:19Well, they did go short to the edge of the box.

08:23It's still got to be a terrific shot to beat the goalkeeper from there.

08:29And he produces again Rafinha.

08:32There it is, a little over.

08:33What is he? 30 yards out.

08:36Hits it with power.

08:37Great accuracy.

08:43I thought it was Koubasi.

08:45And he is Chiram anyway.

08:46And this is a powerful run.

08:48Can he do it again?

08:49It's a good block by Koubasi.

08:52Inter get it absolutely right with the ball through.

08:54Chiram timed his run.

08:56Chiram holds it up.

08:58There's a quick release on there to Remy Dunfries.

09:01Wants it play forward.

09:02Might get it here now from Bissek.

09:04It's a great pace on the pass.

09:06It's a lovely cross in inviting.

09:07They're in again here!

09:08They've scored again here!

09:11Oh, the flag is up.

09:12It won't count.

09:14And Henry McIntyre saw glory in front of his eyes there.

09:18Well, at the moment it won't count.

09:20The Inter players seem fairly sure that he wasn't offside here.

09:24It's close.

09:25It's going to be close.

09:26It's a great ball.

09:27He knows exactly how to break the line down this right-hand side.

09:31He's waving his finger.

09:32This is going to be tight.

09:34Really, really tight I would say.

09:36This will go to Jérôme Brissard, the VAR.

09:41Offside.

09:44An assistant referee was absolutely right according to the VAR.

09:47Pedri almost at walking pace.

09:58Jamal will accelerate from that sort of a position though.

10:02Wends his way inside.

10:03Just a little tickle sent him down.

10:08Jamin Lopez has stood to his left.

10:11I'm sure it'll be Rafinha from here.

10:13It is.

10:14It's under the wall.

10:15Some are ready.

10:17There it is again.

10:17Yeah, it goes down the side wall.

10:19Pedri gets out of the way.

10:20But someone could see that coming.

10:24This century.

10:26Ferran Torres can release Jamal.

10:28It was just behind him.

10:29Scoot to the bumper.

10:30Hits the woodwork again.

10:32I think he was trying to find Rafinha.

10:40They fancied him to score there.

10:43Here's Rafinha.

10:43Might score here.

10:44And that's someone with a splendid sight.

10:46To keep it at 3-3.

10:48Oh, from a slightly different angle.

10:49But it's very similar to the own goal.

10:52And Sommer is right above him.

10:53This time he gets a much better touch on it.

10:55For the goal, went through his fingertips.

10:58There, really good touch by the goalkeeper.

11:00And then Torres back to Jamal with those very quick feet.

11:04A combination of Bastogne and Augusto going back to the goalkeeper.

11:07There, really good touch by the goalkeeper.

11:11Some night here in Barcelona where it finishes 3-3.

11:15Wonderful night, Stuart.

11:17Brilliant.

11:17This is still very, very open.

11:20Barcelona 3 into 3.
