Messi Magic Sparks Barcelona Comeback in Thrilling Draw’ In a match that will long be remembered, Barcelona rallied from a two-goal deficit to draw 3-3 with Inter Milan at Camp Nou on Wednesday night. The Blaugrana were inspired by the brilliance of Lionel Messi, who scored a stunning brace and assisted the equalizer. Inter took the lead in the 36th minute through Lautaro Martinez, who pounced on a loose ball after Marc-Andre ter Stegen parried a Romelu Lukaku shot. Lukaku doubled the advantage for the visitors just before the break, finishing off a swift counterattack with a clinical strike. Barcelona looked stunned at the start of the second half, but Messi injected some life into the match when he curled a magnificent free-kick into the top corner in the 58th minute. The Argentine maestro then set up Luis Suarez for the equalizer in the 82nd minute, heading the ball down for the Uruguayan to fire home from close range. With two minutes remaining, Messi struck again in spectacular fashion. He picked up the ball on the edge of the area and dribbled past two Inter defenders before firing an unstoppable shot into the far corner. The Camp Nou crowd erupted in a deafening roar, celebrating a remarkable comeback. “It was a very difficult game,” Messi said after the match. “We started badly, but we showed our character and never gave up. We deserved at least a point.” The draw keeps Barcelona in third place in Group F, two points behind Borussia Dortmund and Inter Milan with one match remaining. The Blaugrana will need to win at home against Dortmund in their final match on December 10th to advance to the knockout rounds of the Champions League.
