Eric Garcia felt that Barcelona’s defeat to Inter was “cruel” after Hansi Flick’s side were beaten 4-3 in the second leg of their Champions League semi-final.

The right-back scored a brilliant goal to help Barca fight back from 2-0 down and go on to lead 3-2 in the second half.

However, Inter equalised at the death and went on to win the tie in extra-time, leaving Eric to reflect on what might have been.

“Football has been very cruel to us. I don’t know what it is about this stadium. I’ve been here three times and it’s never gone our way,” he told the media afterwards.
