He went on to talk about the match and continued:
Barca lost 7-6 on aggregate after two thrilling 3-3 draws in both legs took the game to extra time. Davide Frattesi scored the dramatic winner at San Siro in extra time to seal a place in the final for the Serie A side. They will face either Arsenal or Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

Barca next face Real Madrid at home in LaLiga this weekend. A win would see them go seven points clear at the top of the table with three matches remaining in the season.
