Everyone expected Barcelona to win Inter easily, but the game changed ...

I was never expecting Barcelona to have an easy win against an Inter Milan side that's been very impressive and formidable in the UEFA Champions League competition this season and that's why I wasn't surprised that Barcelona never went ahead in that game but came from behind twice to draw the game. Even in the next leg that'll be better played next week in San Siro, I'm fully optimistic that Inter Milan will end Barcelona's dreams of winning the European title this season by winning that game and the tie.

How confident are you about it though? But it’s okay to dream
Home advantage for Inter Milan in the second leg could prove crucial, but this match is expected to be a different game.
Both teams will try to correct their mistakes on the defensive, and maybe a mistake could decide the second leg.
I predict Barca will eliminate Inter in the second leg, especially since Barca is having Hansi Flick.
Flick Ball will press them continuously and this match is mostly Barcelona's possession. IMO

Anyway, when the games are played like Barcelona against Inter, Stadiums are never empty, and the football business will grow.
We can complain that the football industry is rotten and that they only think about money, but football lovers will never stop being part of it. The good things that football brings are greater than the bad.

On paper, Barcelona is indeed more favored than Inter Milan, but that is only a calculation on paper and what happened was different from what was predicted, Inter Milan actually showed they were ready to compete.

Never underestimate your opponent, especially if the team is one of the big teams. I can understand if that is a prediction and calculation on paper, but it could be different.

On the 6 day of this month of May Barcelona and Inter Milan will be facing each other once again after the last terrible outcome, this time is to make more effort and think beyond the board to have a good execution this time because there is no opportunity again after this coming one and anybody that wins becomes the top two best in champions League, Barcelona might succeed because I'm not sure to see Inter Milan on the same form as the first leg but that is guaranteed for Barcelona because there players are very strong.

What makes you think that Inter have lost form compared to their initial form in the first leg. Barcelona should be ready to face war on that day because Inter forego their first place in Serria A just to maintain their quality to face Barcelona. The match is unpredictable.

On paper, Barcelona is indeed more favored than Inter Milan, but that is only a calculation on paper and what happened was different from what was predicted, Inter Milan actually showed they were ready to compete.

Even if Barcelona is the favorite team and people say they are stronger, there is no guarantee that they will beat Inter Milan. In fact, Inter Milan almost defeated them in the first Leg. Since Inter Milan could get a draw result in Barcelona home, I think Inter Milan has a bigger chance in the second Leg because it will be in Inter Milan home. Inter Milan know better their home stadium, it will be advantage for Inter Milan. and Inter Milan also has more motivation because they are playing in front of their home base fans/supporters. I favor Inter Milan to win the next match.

Never underestimate your opponent, especially if the team is one of the big teams. I can understand if that is a prediction and calculation on paper, but it could be different.

Sure, it will be a big mistake to underestimate the opponent. Moreover it is in the semi-final round. There is no weak team which can reach the semi-final round. All of the teams in the semi-final are strong teams.

Barcelona has always been considered the favorite; in every match, the bookmakers always back Barcelona.
The fact is, football is unpredictable—and Inter has shown that to some extent! They were even leading 0-2 in the first half of the match.
Then it ended as we already know! But in the return leg, it's unlikely that Inter will be completely overwhelmed by Barcelona. The Nerazzurri are dangerous when playing at home, even if Barcelona is stronger on paper.
But tomorrow we'll know the final verdict! Who will go to the final and who will be out.
I'm betting on a PSG - Inter final.

The goal scoring form Barcelona is at as of late is scary, they even came behind yesterday to win their match.
Well Inter Milan conceded more than I expected for an Italian team and I know they are going to go all out tomorrow.
Barcelona wants a treble, so they highly motivated and form is at the peak. Still favorite but I will get on Inter Milan for higher odds.

Yes, I agree that Yamal must be guarded closely if Inter Milan wants to hinder the flow of attacks built by Barcelona. And actually, this magical boy always amazes me. He plays like he's not a teenager. He plays on par with other senior players and there are even several things that make him have advantages over the others. He is good at finding gaps in the opponent and moves the ball extremely well. The assists created by Yamal are sometimes difficult for the opponent to read. So Inter Milan really has to be aware of this.

One of the potential young players that Barcelona now has and we can see how Yamal can contribute greatly to Barcelona.

I also agree that this player cannot be allowed to freely hold the ball, because when he holds the ball there are always opportunities created for Barcelona.

Barcelona is very lucky to have a young player full of potential like him.

Yes, Barcelona is really very lucky because they succeeded in bringing Lamine Yamal to the club. Because without this kid, maybe Barcelona's game would be quite monotonous like previous seasons. But with the presence of Yamal we can see several differences in the attack style that this team has built. But Inter Milan is quite famous for its defense, so for both teams things should still be difficult to predict.

That's the mindset of most people before the start of the match that Barcelona is at home and they are formidable also to be the favorite team to win at home first. The draw came as shock to many. Many bettors loss their bet because of the draw match.

This second leg, some people still have the same belief that Barcelona are still the favorite team to win despite it is Inter home.

Yeah when the chances to win are almost the same with the other team, there's nothing wrong with betting on the underdog I guess. Not underestimating Barca to win too but I'm also leaning towards Inter to do the famous 'Italian Job' in the second leg

The real fans...
Hansi Flick’s high line is just insane. It’s April and they are still finding players offside. Flick high line which is a risk but it works.
On top of that, it helps them win the ball back so high up near the opponent’s box. It makes them create quick chances after ball recovery but Inter is the one on 3 different clubs that hat tricked Flick's defense but Flick will do things better. They want to get to the final with defense, transitions, and style.
And it's not the first time Hansi Flick has been in San Siro, He played against Inter. They won 2-0 in Munich, and Bayern won here 3-1.

It’s not gonna be easy for Inter to beat Barcelona tonight, no doubt about that. But looking at how they’ve been playing in the Champions League, I honestly believe it’s gonna be just as hard for Barça to get past them. It’s all level now — and tonight, the one with more courage and less fear is going to the final. Doesn’t matter who it is — it’s all on the line!

Both sides have been sharp lately and this game is more about attitude now., Flicks high line is risky but it keeps pressure up and if they stay compact it works well Inter knows how to exploit space also so, it could go any way. Whoever exhibits more heart tonight is taking that ticket to the final.

Surely this match will really feel like a final. because the two teams are still not superior to each other. Both still have the same aggregate. But here I prefer Inter Milan. Not because I believe Inter Milan is stronger. But this is just a choice based on emotions. Barcelona is a team that is difficult to beat. But seeing that Inter Milan was able to hold their draw in the first leg, this made me confident enough to side with Inter Milan.
