Simone Inzaghi isn't a manager who tends to facilitate chaos, but last week's Champions League semifinal first leg in Catalonia was nothing short of a frenzy.
Inter entered the tie with Barcelona as the underdogs, but some will now have the Italian champions listed as the favourites to advance after they earned a 3-3 draw at the Montjuic last week. This is a team that simply can't be written off in cup competitions, although another mammoth effort on home soil is required if they're to reach their third Champions League final of the century.
While their fallibility manifested last week, we also saw the very best of Hansi Flick's Barca amid the back-and-forth melodrama. The German's outfit are almost impossible to contain, with the manager's emphasis upon verticality, speed and 'diagonalism' rendering Barca a swashbuckling unit who are ever so watchable.
Purists are dreaming of a Barcelona vs PSG final, but Inzaghi's Inter – and teams of the like – have proven to be the kryptonite of this Barca outfit. Thus, a big challenge awaits this burgeoning Blaugrana team.
