Inter Milan scored 13 goals in two rounds, tied the goal record in the Champions League semi-finals - Serie A team also participated last time

The so-called "unknown game" is just a common phenomenon, but it does not mean there are no accidents. For example, it is said that there will not be too many goals in the World Cup final, but how to explain the 3:3 game in 2022? Although the Champions League semi-finals are less important than the finals, they are also the most important stage before the finals. Most teams are definitely very cautious in this stage. But there are certainly exceptions. For example, Bayern used seven joys to beat Barcelona, ​​and in two rounds, it was 7:0. Of course, compared to this one-sided situation, we would definitely prefer to see a close match in the Champions League semi-finals this season.

After 3:3 in the first round, how many people can think that the second round will still score a big score, and it is even bigger than 3:3? I remember three years ago, the semi-finals between Manchester City and Real Madrid scored 4:3 in the first leg, but the output of both sides was significantly reduced in the second leg. They only scored 2:1 in 90 minutes, and scored another goal in overtime. There are very few famous games like Inter Milan and Barcelona who have scored 13 goals in two rounds in the history of the Champions League.

The key is that this is the semi-final. If you want to say it was the previous knockout stage, Bayern encountered a showdown of clearly distinguishing strength and weakness in Portugal Sports, and scored 13 goals or even more in two rounds. It is not surprising. But in the semi-finals, it is likely to be a collision between giants, and sometimes, 1:0 is the norm.

So, 3:3, 4:3 is so rare.

At the same time, 13 goals are also the highest total goal scored in the two rounds of the semi-finals in the history of the Champions League. However, Inter Milan and Barcelona did not set a record, but just stood at the same record. Because two teams have done this together before. Coincidentally, last time, there were also Serie A teams involved.

Actually, this matter is really a bit contradictory. Hasn't Italy always been known for its steady defense? But in the history of football, many records involving the number of goals are also related to Italy. For example, the record with the largest score difference in the World Cup final was 3 goals, including Italy's 1:4 loss to Brazil in 1970. The biggest score in the European Cup final was 4:0, which was 2012, when Italy was violently hit by Spain.

Combined with Italy's stability, it is just the norm, but at specific nodes, they will also go against the norm and do crazy things on the goal and defensive ends. Just like Inter Milan this time, they have been very stable all the way before. They even conceded 1 goal in the first phase of 8 games, and they are as powerful as Bayern, and they only scored two goals in a single game. But in the semi-finals, Inter Milan lost 6 goals in two rounds, which was really a bit different from them. But at the same time, they can score 7 goals in Barcelona, ​​which is even less like them. Perhaps, for a team like Barcelona, ​​you must break the rules and deconstruct the inherent style of play.

So, in the history of the Champions League, which season was the last crazy semi-final?

17-18 seasons. In the semi-finals, Liverpool vs. Roma, 5:2 in one game and 4:2 in the other game, and also scored 13 goals in two rounds. At that time, they jointly set a goal record in the Champions League semi-finals.

That season, Roma was the biggest dark horse. They turned against the wind in the quarterfinals and eliminated Barcelona. And facing Liverpool, Roma has also maximized its talents. Although they were eliminated, they were at least not crushed. They won one game. Moreover, not everyone can do it by allowing Liverpool to concede 6 goals in two rounds.

The collision between Serie A teams may be boring, just like the 0:0 match between Milan and Juventus in the 2002-03 Champions League final. However, when Serie A teams meet teams in other leagues, they can still create some unexpected sparks. Either they scored goals wildly, or they lost the goals wildly. No matter what, Rome back then, and Inter Milan today, used the same method to make people remember them. Next, it depends on whether Inter Milan can continue to perform in the finals.
