The Barcelona players raged to referee Szymon Marciniak after the pole granted Inter Milan a penalty in the first half in their semi-final in the semi-final of the Champions League.
Lautaro Martinez had already put Inter 1-0 in the night when the Argentinian burst into the box in search of a second goal.
The Argentinian was ready to shoot before Pau Cubarsi slipped for a last tackle. At first glance, it looked like a brilliant piece of defense when Marciniak was beaved to play.
However, the referee was quickly advised by a second look by the Var and, after examining the images, said his place.
Hakan Calhanoglu Cooly converted the penalty in front of Wojciech Szczesny to put Inter Milan 2-0 in the night and give them an advantage of 5-3 on the half-time.
The Barcelona players surrounded the referee shortly after making his decision, then again after the spotkick was converted. And, after the whistle at half-time was blown away, some replacements from Barcelona even went to the field to face the civil servants in the middle of a fiery atmosphere at the San Siro.

Despite the protests of Barcelona, the former international of England Wayne Rooney and Daniel Sturridge, the two experts from Amazon Prime, were united to believe that the right decision was made.
“Oh is a penalty, 100%,” Rooney told Amazon Prime.
“It’s a big race from Martinez and he’s smart, he leaves his leg in there. The defender takes out his legs. In my opinion, it is a clear penalty.
While Sturridge added that Barcelona Defender Cubarsi may have been taken by a more cunning opponent.

“He is a young defender, only 18 years old,” said Sturridge.
“And it’s a bit of experience, a little kindness of Martinez, leaving his leg a little, allowing him to be kicked.
“As an attacker, you want the defenders to rush into the box. This is what you expect.
