The highly anticipated UEFA Champions League semi-final second leg between Inter Milan and FC Barcelona is set to take place on May 7, at the iconic San Siro stadium in Milan, Italy. After a thrilling 3-3 draw in the first leg at Barcelona’s Olympic Stadium, both teams will be desperate to settle the score and secure a spot in the final.
Inter Milan, aiming for their second Champions League final appearance in three years, are determined to build on their strong home advantage, while Barcelona, under Hansi Flick’s management, are looking to break a near-decade-long European drought and lift their first UCL trophy since 2015. The tactical battle between Inter's disciplined defense and Barcelona’s aggressive pressing style adds a fascinating layer to this high-stakes encounter.
