FC Barcelona and Inter offered us a magnificent show in this semi-final go to the Champions League (3-3) at the Olympic stadium in Montjuïc. Twice led to the score, the Blaugranas have returned each time and would even have deserved the whole of winning. Carried by the talent of Lamine Yamal, they will have to do better on the return to Lombardy next Tuesday and above all correct errors that are difficult to forgive this level of competition. The very offensive and attractive game of the corruption appeals to all observers, but to reach a triumph in C1 obliges to underline the permeability of the defense.
She was naive and too tender, like this first center badly returned by Koundé who led to the opening of the thuram score after 30 seconds of play. And then there are these stopped phases. They too hurt Barça. Twice Dumfries took advantage of it. This is the weak point of the team. “We can defend much better against themrecognizes Hansi Flick at a press conference. It is not only a question of size, it is also a question of performance and timing in one against one… ” Extends the German coach, especially since the Nerazzurri excels in this area.
Flick: “We have to defend better»»
“”The Inter also scored two goals against Bayern on set kicks. They are among the best on corners, and we must defend better»Harts Flick. This weak point is not new at Barça and is part of her very risky game, brought to the offensive. This is part of his identity and it is assumed by the German technician. Nevertheless, the Champions League celebrates the vast majority of time the balanced teams. The very high level often gives reason to pragmatics. For the Flick coach, this is above all an adjustment problem that his men must correct for the return semi-final.
“We can progress, but also in attack. Many say that our way of playing is risky. I read it in the press in Germany, but that's how ithe assumes. If we look at the other large teams, the goals they collect … In Liga, Real Madrid does not have much difference with us in the goals conceded. There are times when it's risky, but I love it. In the end, we always look at the attackers, but everything starts from the defense, the goalkeeper. Everyone is involved. In defense, it's the same. The work begins with number 9. “ The answer will be eagerly awaited on the ground on Tuesday evening.
