French striker, Marcus Thurman silenced the home crowd in the opening minute with a brilliant backheel goal. The goal was registered within 30 seconds of the starting whistle, making it the fastest goal ever to be scored in the history of the UEFA Champions League semifinals. Following the goal was a tale of an edge-of-the-seat thriller.
After Thurram opened the scoring just one minute in, giving his team an early lead. Dumfries doubled the advantage with a stunning goal in the 23rd minute, only for Barcelona to quickly rally. Lamine Yamal reduced the deficit in the 24th minute, followed by Ferran Torres, who scored in the 38th minute, bringing Barcelona back to level terms.
Lautaro Martinez and Jules Koundé had to leave the field due to injuries sustained in the first half. In the second half, Dumfries outsmarted Barcelona's high defensive line and found the net in the 63rd minute. However, an unfortunate own goal from Sommer just two minutes later allowed Barcelona to equalize.
Both teams are set to clash at San Siro for the highly anticipated second leg fixture. With no scoreboard advantage for either side, the outcome will be crucial in determining who moves a step closer to European glory.
