Inter Milan equalized in stoppage time, with Francesco Acerbi scoring in the 93rd minute, taking advantage of a defensive mistake from Barcelona.
The match proceeded to extra time, where Davide Frattesi netted the fourth goal for the Italian side in the 99th minute, benefiting from the spaces left in Barcelona’s weary defense, securing a historic victory and the UEFA Champions League title for his team.
