CNN
Follow live updates from CNN Sports as Barcelona takes on Inter in the first leg of their semifinal tie.
• Champions League semifinals: Five-time winner FC Barcelona hosts Internazionale, better known as Inter Milan, in the first leg of their semifinal tie. • The match kicks off at 3 p.m. ET / 9 p.m. local time at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Barcelona. • PSG takes slim advantage to the City of Light: Paris Saint-Germain defeated Arsenal in the first semifinal match. The French club won 1-0 in London, with the second leg set for next week in Paris. It should go without saying, but if Inter Milan can contain the supremely talented Lamine Yamal, they’ll be in with a shout. Hard to believe he’s still only 17 and already a European champion with Spain. He also makes his 100th appearance tonight for Barça. Comparisons with former Blaugrana great Lionel Messi are inevitable, but not as far as Yamal is concerned. In the build-up to tonight’s match, the teenager labeled the Argentine icon the greatest player of all time. These are the nights of legend and Yamal can begin to follow the path paved by arguably the greatest ever if he stars tonight.
