Barcelona's dreams of a Champions League, Copa del Rey and LaLiga treble have vanished after Inter Milan roared back from the brink of elimination to grab a phenomenal 7-6 aggregate win and end the Spaniards' European campaign in the semi-final.

At just 16 years old, the Barcelona prodigy has turned Europe’s biggest stage into his playground, and in doing so, he’s left one of Serie A’s most seasoned tacticians visibly exasperated.

For 22 minutes, Barcelona did not seem to believe they would reach the Champions League final, and then Lamine Yamal decided enough was enough.

Trailing by two goals, the Catalan giants mounted a remarkable turnaround, with Yamal netting in the 92nd minute and Ferran Torres sealing the victory in the 98th. The win saw Barca leapfrog Madrid, who had briefly taken the lead in the standings following their victory over Villarreal on Saturday.
