Barcelona 2-1 Inter Milan: 4 Talking Points | UEFA Champions League 2019/20

#1 Inter Milan's failure to punish Barcelona

Martinez scored one goal on the night, but he should've had more

Lautaro Martinez's second-minute goal was exactly what this Inter side needed to get a result at Nou Camp where they have an immensely poor record. For about 45 minutes, it did seem like Antonio Conte's team would pull off a stunning result and you could practically hear the alarm bells ringing for Valverde.

Martinez himself had a couple of chances that he should've buried in the first half. His inability to convert from those opportunities would come back to haunt them as Barcelona marched to a 2-1 victory.

Antonio Candreva, and Nicolo Barella both had opportunities that went begging as well. Inter astutely denied Barcelona plenty of opportunities with their tight defensive set-up but failed to convert their goalscoring chances. On most days that's an undesirable quality, but against a dangerous Barcelona team at Camp Nou, it proved to be the nail in Inter's proverbial coffin.
