On the bright side, Messi still has never scored against us.

All too predictable. Another episode of blood boiling barca rage.

Hard fought game with no result for us. Now we can forget about staying in CL after the group. Still great game by our guys.

Forza inter
Forza Conte

So close, but yet so far away.
This team is still a little tto immature yet.

Give it a season to gel and I think we very much can have a good shot next year.

Vidal changed everything. Barca look so much better with De Jong in the middle.

The moment we subbed in G5 we lost the game. Not because he was bad or directly at fault, but because with him him we went all in defending, and showed we are scared.

Not a bad game, unlucky loss.

Fucking salty as shit right now. Think Conte made a mistake in trying to defend. Needed Politano for Sanchez as first sub.

Agree with the sentiment, but I honestly don't see how that could have made any difference. The game turned when Sensi got tired and Vidal brought fresh intensity to Barca. The Politanos or Gagliardinis of the world could not change that. We just ran outta gas.

This is a young team in development. There were too many positives today to feel dejected. Forza Inter, this is the start of something special.

It's bitter, but good game by us. Should have scored more from chances in the first half. And the depth of our team is lacking in quality... We should definitely add another quality midfielder, someone who can do something. Our subs aren't game changing in our favor.

Gutted. Expected the result, but still had that hope we could actually pull it off.

Hurts more that Dortmund beat Prague easily and both them and Barca are sitting comfortably on 4pts while we only have 1.

Mixed feelings about this match. Despite the loss, there were some positive signs. First half was great but second half was really poor. When you are wasting chances at this level, you're eventually gonna pay for it. Conte didn't really help with his defensive approach in the second half but he didn't really have many options. We need to improve our squad depth a lot to compete against the top sides.

In the 65th or whatever minute, Barca sub in 140mil Dembele (for 120mil Griezmann), we sub in Gagliardini (for free loan Sanchez). That pretty much sums everything up right there.

Ok, but it was still tactical blunders. Candreva was physically finished after the first half. It was on his side that Suarez scored, Suarez was wide open. The 3 CBs had their men covered, Sensi and Barella as well. Fresher legs would have made the difference in catching up to/marking Suarez.

Sanchez no matter how tired he is, HAS to finish games like these. Fatigued or not. He's the only one with quality besides Martinez.

Shortly after the Suarez goal, Conte realised "Oh yes, Candreva is tired" and brought on D'Ambrosio, who could bring NOTHING to this game at that point.
