Forward Lautaro Martínez was the author of the goal that put Inter ahead in the match against Barcelona F.C. in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League semifinals. In the 21st minute of the first half, the 'Toro' scored the goal that filled his team with relief and unleashed a roar from the stands of San Siro.
Left-back Federico Dimarco recovered the ball in the midfield, cutting off a developing attack from Barcelona. Immediately, Dimarco passed the ball to right-back Denzel Dumfries, who spotted Lautaro Martínez in a favorable position to open the scoring. Dumfries decided to pass the ball to the Argentine, who did not waste the opportunity.
The 'Toro' received the pass and finished the counterattack masterfully, beating goalkeeper Szczęsny with an unstoppable shot. Although the play seemed to be heading towards a powerful direct shot, Dumfries preferred the option to pass the ball to Martínez, a choice that turned out to be the right one and culminated in the long-awaited goal for Inter.
