Shout out for a great great result today! Credit where it‘s due. I knew that we would bounce back at the beginning of the second as Barcelona wasted too much energy in the first half, but was worried towards the end as we had next to no alternatives comparing to them coming from the bench.

However pulling out a 3-4-2-1 with Bellanova and Gosens being the two was nothing short of genius and frankly the only move available that could somehow let us further exploit Barcelonas weaknesses. Sadly Asllani didn’t capitalize on that. Looking at the squad it is glaringly obvious that he outcoached Xavi in both games.

No matter how much hate he was correctly given for how we perform in the league, tonight’s performance was really genius (in front of 90.000 opposing fans with a very hostile build up to the game don’t forget), and he definitely delivered more than expected in Europe considering the human and material resources available than expected.

Even in moments of glory he still manages to make questionable decisions. Taking Calha out almost cost us the result.
Calha was a toast. What I didn't get was taking Barella out instead of Mhki in the end. Mhkitaryan is okay with the ball, but he's a bit slow at that point of the game and defending is not his forte like we saw in the 1-0 goal. I would have taken Asllani in for Mkhi instead of Barella in the second sub event.

Switching to 5-4-1 was a good idea, but they hadn't rehearsed that one bit. Bellanova and Dumfries was fucking around so much in their flank when defending. :D

Nevertheless, Inzaghi just has it. He just keeps racking these points in the CL.

I believe Bellanova in for counter because he’s fresh and has speed, Dumfries could focus on Fati. Both Hakan and Dzeko were tired at that point. Only Asllani for Barella was questionable but might be tired as well.

I can almost put up with the shit league results, for these European nights. It feels like forever ago when we could compete with the big CL teams.

Barca nowadays are far from being a big CL team

I thought there was a hint of chaos in the second half with his subs, but it ended up working out. Well done mister. Now mind back to the championship.

You dont have to make subs just for the sake of it. Regardless he is doing ok and has managed to bounce back with the team from the dreadful start. Still him and the rest of the Italian coaches are the same, get a goal and hang back for 90 mins and make defensive subs for no reason. They are all the same him Conte etc and they are a big reason Inter historically have been trash in Europe apart from the 2010 CL win.

And Barca are a big team regardless and with the amount of players they bought everyone had them going through with Bayern easily.

Doesn't change the fact that most people wrote us off from day 1.
They thought we were toast but we're still the bread!

Bravo limone. Came to camp nou and should have out barca to bed. They call him cantenaccio because he totally exploited barcas weaknesses.

One thing though, his red card. Lol he was demanding the game was over and showing he was happy with the draw. Why did we try to score from a corner like 2 minutes before this then, instead of hold it in the corner lol
