League stage was mental, weird results all over the place. Knockouts then providing interesting ties every round. Pick of games for me each round was Liverpool-PSG, then Villa-PSG, and now last night's match. Only hope PSG go through, PSG-Inter would be a game and a half.

Get rid of the goalkeepers and we could have 21-20 score-lines to keep Shearer et al happy! Paul Read the room Paul! Just kidding, all opinions here are welcome, and we did flag Yann Sommer's efforts earlier. 7-6 thrillers aren't for everyone, we understand that. .. Craig Nelson BBC Sport reporter Oh to be able to turn a hobby into your job. .. Hang on, I get paid [not as much as Alan] to watch football and write about it, so I can't complain.

It was relentless and the rain tipping down as it drew to a climactic finale added to the cinematic spectacle. Inter worthy winners over the two legs. Bellísimo. Will, London Inter Milan 4-3 Barcelona AET (agg 7-6) Inter won the European Cup in 1964 and 1965 and clinched the Champions League in 2010, when Jose Mourinho guided them to a 2-0 win in the final against Bayern Munich. No Italian side has won the competition since then - Juventus lost in the 2015 and 2017 finals, before Rodri scored the only goal for Manchester City against Inter in the final two years ago. Simone Inzaghi was Inter's manager then and he has again plotted a route to the final, while also putting them in contention to win a second successive Italian Serie A title. They are second in their domestic league, three points behind leaders Napoli with three games to go. Meanwhile, Barcelona have been European champions five times, but have not reached the final since their last success in 2015. They still have a chance to grab their third domestic trophy this season as they hold a four-point lead at the top of La Liga over reigning champions Real Madrid. Barca entertain Real in El Clasico on Sunday and a victory would go a long way to securing a 28th Spanish title - and only their second in the past six campaigns.

Not as pleasingly symmetrical, but more accurate! Response to mat at 7: 14. It's was Inter, Inter, Barca, Barca, Inter, Barca, Inter, Inter, Barca, Barca, Barca, Inter, Inter. I thought last week's match was brilliant, but this one something else. Efeturi Thanks for fact-checking Michael and Efeturi [hangs head in shame]. It was early, what can I say. .. Inter Milan 4-3 Barcelona AET (agg 7-6) After Lautaro Martinez had put Inter ahead following good work from team-mate Denzel Dumfries, Hakan Calhanoglu converted a penalty at the end of the first half to leave Barcelona 5-3 behind on aggregate and in massive trouble. But Hansi Flick's side dominated the second half. Former Manchester City defender Eric Garcia volleyed one back for Barcelona before Dani Olmo's fine diving header in the 60th minute from Gerard Martin's cross made it 2-2 on the night and 5-5 on aggregate. Raphinha grabbed what appeared to be an 87th-minute winner as Barca went ahead for the first time in the tie, when he converted a rebound after Sommer had saved his first strike. Inter saved themselves, although Yamal hit the woodwork with a long-range effort before being presented with the chance to win the tie in the sixth minute of stoppage time, only for Sommer to make a vital stop. The hosts then retook the lead in extra time, but Barca still created chances, only for substitute Robert Lewandowski to head over and for 18-year-old Yamal to be denied by Sommer's superb one-handed save.

With just two minutes of added time left, Inter trailed 3-2 on the night and were heading out when centre-back Francesco Acerbi smashed a cross into the roof of the net to level the tie, the 37-year-old charging around with his shirt off in wild celebrations. And there were more ecstatic scenes when substitute Davide Frattesi won it for the Italian champions, curling a beautiful left-footed shot into the bottom corner in the first period of extra-time before climbing up a security fence to celebrate in front of Inter's fans. It means a second Champions League final in three seasons for three-time European champions Inter after two legs of incredible drama which saw 13 goals and a tie turned on its head on several occasions.
