Beyond the seven goals that have conceded in the tie, if the Barcelona It is not in the Champions League final is for a man: Yann Summer. The veteran goalkeeper Inter from Milan He consecrated himself in the Giuseppe Meazza and claimed himself as what has always been, a true goalkeeper. A goalkeeper of reflexes and not very high compared to others such as Courtois or Ter Stegen – a result that measures 1.83 meters – that set an epic performance.
Seven were the stops made to Barça, but especially there were three in which he denied the goal to the whole culé, with two spectacular to Lamine Yamal and another no less incredible to Eric García. The first was with the 2-1 on the scoreboard, when the interist appeared to Bocajarro to get a sung goal. Then, in an attempt to YAMAL to recreate the goal to France in the Eurocup – although from closer – put a providential hand to save the goal.
Although the best of all was the last. With 4-3, already in the final minutes of the extension, the goal put a saving hand to a shot of the young Spanish international inside. His intervention prevented the Barcelona He tied the game to virtually a few moments to finish the extension. As noted by the own Sommer, It is the stop that will remember the seven that made Barça, on a day in which it stood out to hold Inter in search of the Champions League final.
-The goalkeeper spoke at the end of the game, when he was selected as the best player of the match. «I am very happy; We play an incredible game. What stop will I remember? The last one to Lamine Yamal. He is a great player, and luckily he did not enter. Many teams would have surrendered after losing 3-2, but we did not do it and managed to overcome ».
Sommer was the hero of Inter
Sommer He vindicated himself as the great goalkeeper who has always been, a Swiss veteran to whom the awards reach in the final stretch of his career. In fact, after starting his career almost 20 years ago in Helvetic football, it was not until two seasons when he could enjoy the elite – beyond the World Cups and Eurocas with Switzerland – when signing for the Bayern Munich for the middle season. Left the Monchengladbach After a decade to replace an injured Neuer and, at the end of that course, he would reach the Inter. Los Neroazzurri They would sell to his goalkeeper onana to Manchester United for 50 million euros, after playing the Champions League final and losing it. They would sign for seven. The change has not been able to get out better.
This performance of Yann summer It was key for Inter not to end the encounter. In fact, he served to be chosen as the MVP of the party. He was the best player of the match for Salvadoras interventions that allowed those of Simone Inzaghi to get into the Munich final, where they can be proclaimed for the third time in their history Champions of Europe, something that they have not achieved for 15 years, with a lost final in 2023 against Manchester City.
