Barcelona rise from the ashes, but shaky defense leaves Champions League dreams hanging after Inter classic
Barcelona, stunned but
unbowed, began to find their rhythm. Roared on by the home crowd, they pulled
one back just before halftime—Robert Lewandowski nodding in a precise cross,
giving the Catalans a lifeline.
The second half exploded into
life. Just when it seemed Barcelona might level, Inter struck again—Lautaro
MartÃnez finishing a swift counterattack with ruthless precision to make it
3-1, silencing the stadium once more.

But this night was never going
to be simple.
Barcelona, showing resilience
and desperation in equal measure, stormed forward. Lewandowski again rose to
the occasion, capitalizing on a defensive mix-up to slot home and drag his side
back into the fight at 3-2.
With the clock ticking down
and the atmosphere at fever pitch, Barcelona pushed for one more—and in
stoppage time, they found it. A loose ball in the box, a scramble, and once
again, Lewandowski delivered. 3-3. Bedlam.
The final whistle blew on a
chaotic, unforgettable contest. A draw, yes—but one that leaves Barcelona’s
Champions League hopes delicately balanced, with defensive frailties still
haunting them despite their spirited comeback.
