🏆👉   Inter failed to win the UEFA Champions League Round of 16, Second Leg game against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday 13 March 2024 at the Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid, Spain. In the first leg match – which ended 1-0 with a goal from Arnautovic, Inter took home much less than they built, with several missed scoring opportunities. After a hard-fought match for more than 120 minutes, Atletico Madrid won on penalties. The errors of Alexis Sánchez, Davy Klassen and Lautaro  Martínez were decisive.

Atlético Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak saved two penalties and Lautaro Martínez failed the decisive penalty shooting over the bar to send Atletico through 3-2 in the shootout after the match finished 2-1 to Atletico after extra time.

⚫🔵 Inter took the lead in the 33rd minute Federico Di Marco defeated Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak with a right-footed shot to the center. The assist is by Nicolò Barella.

Atlético Madrid equalized in the 35th minute. Forward Antoine Griezmann scored with a left-footed shot to the bottom left corner.

Ooops! Atlético took the lead in the 87th minute. Memphis Depay scored with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Koke.

Stats before the game: This will be the first time that Atlético Madrid will host Inter, in all competitions. The Colchoneros have won seven of their last nine home matches against Italian teams: the exceptions were the draw (2-2) against Juventus, in September 2019, and the defeat (0-1) against Milan, in November 2021. Inter have not won in 10 away games (D3, L7) against Spanish teams in the Champions League, i.e. since the success against Valencia, 5-1, in October 2004. Atlético Madrid’s 1-0 defeat in the first leg represented the sixth defeat suffered by the Spaniards in their debut match in the knockout phase of the Champions League; the Colchoneros ultimately progressed the first two times (against Bayer Leverkusen in 2014-15 and Barcelona in 2015-16), while they were eliminated in each of the last three (against Real Madrid in 2016-17, the Chelsea in 2020-21 and Man City in 2021-22).
Inter have progressed through seven of the eight previous rounds of the Champions League knockout phase in which they won the first leg.

Napoli failed the mission and lost the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 Second Leg game against Barcelona on Tuesday 12 March 2024 at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Barcelona, Spain. We started with the 1-1 draw in the first leg, Barcelona took advantage of home advantage and eliminated Napoli from the top European competition. This is a painful defeat because Napoli are living a dark period and now out of the Champions League. Barcelona reach Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, also obtaining their ninth consecutive useful result.

For Napoli, it is the first defeat of the Calzona era after five games unbeaten. With this evening’s elimination, Napoli also loses the opportunity to qualify for the 2025 Club World Cup, in which Juventus will instead participate. Tough!

🏆👉 UEFA Champions League Round of 16: Result NAPOLI 1 – 1 BARCELONA, Wednesday 21 February 2024

Barcelona took the lead in the 15th minute. Fermín López defeated Napoli goalkeeper Alex Meret with a right-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Raphinha.

This is not looking good! Barcelona scored a second goal in less than 2 minutes after the first one! In the 17th minute, João Cancelo scored with a right-footed shot to the center following a fast break.

Napoli shortened the distance in the 30th minute. Amir Rrahmani defeated Napoli goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen with a left-footed shot to the bottom left corner. The assist is by Matteo Politano.

Oops! Not a good time! Chaos for Napoli! In the 83rd minute, Robert Lewandowski scored with a left footed shot to the bottom right corner. The assist is by Sergi Roberto.

✅ Stats before the game:   Barcelona have remained unbeaten in their last five meetings with Napoli in all competitions, alternating between a draw (three) and a win (two) in this run.  In all five previous matches between Barcelona and Napoli in all competitions both teams have always scored at least one goal, in addition to three 1-1 draws, the Blaugrana won the other two matches 4-2 and 3-1. In the knockout phase of the Champions League, on 20 of the 21 occasions in which Barcelona avoided defeat in the first leg played away from home, they qualified for the next round. The only exception was in the 2002/03 edition quarter-finals, drawing 1-1 at Juventus before losing 2-1 at home (in extra time). Napoli have been eliminated on 11 occasions in which they failed to win the first leg at home in the knockout phase of a major European competition. The most recent such elimination was against Barcelona in the 2019/20 UEFA Champions League, drawing 1-1 at home before losing 3-1 away. Barcelona have failed to win any of the last four matches played in the knockout phase of the Champions League (2N, 2L), i.e. since the 3-1 success over Napoli in the return match of the round of 16 of the 2019/20 edition. The Blaugrana team has never recorded five games in a row without a win at this stage of the competition.

👉 Lineup BARCELONA (4-3-3): Ter Stegen; Koundé, Araujo, Cubarsì, Cancelo; F. Lopez, Christensen, Gundogan; Lamine Yamal, Lewandowski, Raphinha.

👉 Lineup NAPOLI (4-3-3): Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Juan Jesus, Mario Rui; Anguissa, Lobotka, Traoré; Politano, Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia.
