Honours even at the San Siro

Barcelona started off their Cham­pi­ons League cam­paign away from home against Ital­ian Cham­pi­ons Inter Milan with a 0–0 draw. It is fair to say that Barca had the best chances to win the game cre­at­ing three great oppor­tu­ni­ties within the first 10 min­utes. How­ever they were unable to break down a res­olute Inter Milan defence.

Ibrahi­movic returned to the San Siro, only this time in a Barcelona shirt, but was unable to take the chances that he had to score against his for­mer club. Inter Milan ral­lied in the sec­ond half cre­at­ing a few oppor­tu­ni­ties but never looked like win­ning the game.

This is a good start for the cur­rent hold­ers of the Cham­pi­ons League tro­phy, Inter are their biggest rivals in the group and a draw away from home on the open­ing game of the tour­na­ment is noth­ing to be ashamed of.
