Inter Milan defeats Barcelona 4-3, reaches Champions League final

Inter Milan advanced to the Champions League final after a dramatic 4-3 win over Barcelona, capping a 7-6 aggregate victory. The match was marred by controversy when Barcelona defender Inigo Martinez appeared to spit at Inter’s Francesco Acerbi just before halftime, sparking an on-pitch dispute and prompting a VAR review that resulted in no disciplinary action during the game. Martinez later denied intentionally spitting at Acerbi, insisting it was not directed at him and that he would have been sent off if it had been. Pundits and commentators widely condemned the alleged incident, calling for potential UEFA intervention if wrongdoing is confirmed. Adding to the post-match drama, Inter Milan mocked Barcelona and key players including Lamine Yamal with a viral social media video after their win. Despite the defeat, Barcelona still have a chance at a domestic double, while Inter will face either Arsenal or PSG in the Champions League final.
