It was the game that no-one wanted to end...

For the second time in six days Inter Milan and Barcelona served up a European classic as the champions of Italy won 4-3 on the night - 7-6 on aggregate - to reach the Champions League final.

It was the joint highest-scoring Champions League semi-final ever, with the 13 goals equalling the 2018 semi-final when Liverpool also defeated Roma 7-6 on aggregate.

Italian football expert Mina Rzouki and Ernest Macia from Radio Catalunya joined World Football’s Ade Adedoynin to reflect on one of the all-time great European football ties.
