Mixed emotions on the day Inter defeated Barca

The moment the referee blew the whistle to end the epic battle at San Siro was a vivid image that captured the emotions of the match. While the Inter players lay down, exhausted and happy, Lamine Yamal bowed his head sadly, alone in the midst of the home fans' celebration.

Marcus Thuram gently placed his hand on Yamal's cheek to comfort him. A beautiful image showing the spirit of sportsmanship after a tense battle. Winners and losers, but still colleagues on the field.

Raphinha, with tears in his eyes, could not hide his disappointment after a sublime season in the Champions League. The Brazilian striker is on par with Cristiano Ronaldo when reaching the milestone of 21 times directly contributing to goals (13 goals and 8 assists).

Raphinha played a major role in helping the Catalan team win the Copa del Rey, lead La Liga and reach the semi-finals of the Champions League. However, the away team's journey ended regretfully against a cold and brave Inter Milan at the decisive moment.

The shock was evident on the faces of Pau Cubarsi and his teammates after the final whistle. The young Barcelona player cried like rain. The defeat was hard to swallow on that fateful night at San Siro.

Goalkeeper Yann Sommer raised his gloves as a victory symbol. The veteran goalkeeper made 14 saves in the two matches, contributing greatly to Inter's progress to the final.

Coach Simone Inzaghi hugged his teammates, bursting with emotion after Inter won a ticket to the final. A feat not easily achieved in the continental arena. Inzaghi made a mighty Barcelona collapse after two dramatic matches.

Veteran Francesco Acerbi and coach Inzaghi hugged each other tightly, screaming in happiness. In the 90+3 minute, when Inter was at risk of being eliminated, Acerbi suddenly shone with a shot that hit the roof of the net from Dumfries' cross, equalizing 3-3 and sending the match into extra time. It was a goal more precious than gold at a moment when Inter had nothing to lose.

In the arms of the coaching staff, Lautaro Martinez smiled brightly. He opened the score, won the penalty and was the soul of Inter's play throughout the season.

The moment Davide Frattesi fired a decisive shot in the middle of the blue shirts, bringing home the decisive goal and sending Inter into the final.

The second leg of the semi-final saw Inter win 7-6 after two matches. The Serie A representative reached the Champions League final for the second time in the last three years. Coach Inzaghi's team will face Arsenal or PSG in Munich.
