Mauro ICARDI goal snatches Inter draw vs. Barcelona in Champions League

Mauro ICARDI scored for Inter in their 1-1 draw against FC Barcelona in the Champions league.

A goal which gave Inter a valuable point, the former Barcelona youth player managed to score from close range inside the area following work by Argentina team mate Lautaro MARTINEZ. This was also goal number three in four games for ICARDI in the Champions League, having previously been on the mark against Tottenham and PSV.

Lionel MESSI, who while did not take part in the match due to injury, did take a picture with Argentina and Inter legend Javier ZANETTI. The two were obviously also former team mates with the Argentina national team.

“As an Argentine, very happy because last season Lanus represented us in the final of the Libertadores and this year, it’s a repeat (of Argentine clubs) with Boca and River. It speaks very well of the grows that Argentine football has had the last few years. It’s very good for all Argentine’s.

“It will be a fantastic match, with a lot of enthusiasm, a lot of passion and hopefully in peace.”
