00:00All right, so the big talking point today on our show here is this huge comeback from Inter Milan yesterday against Barcelona.
00:07Certainly a lot of people seem to be on social media saying that Barcelona blew it.
00:12It wasn't that Inter won it. What do you make of it?
00:16Yeah, look, sometimes we like to get into the nitty gritty here, Craig, because that's what we do, right?
00:21We want to find the angles. We want to break down the games.
00:25Sometimes sports just happen, right? And it's great when they do.
00:30Sometimes soccer comes down to put ball in net and one team put ball in net better than other team yesterday.
00:37And that was Inter. It just that's just the way it went.
00:39They got just the perfect mix of incredible goalkeeping.
00:44Jan Sommer was unbelievable, made an incredible number of saves against Laminia Mall in particular.
00:51The equalizing goal at the end of regulation to send it to extra time was scored by a 37-year-old defender
00:58who never scored a Champions League goal in his life before that one.
01:02And it was like a striker's finish. It was unbelievable.
01:05So, you know, sometimes this is just what happens in these knockout tournaments.
01:09It was an all-time game. We had a blast.
01:12But now you look forward. What does it mean for the Champions League final?
01:15Here's what impressed me the most about Inter and why I hope nobody sleeps on them in the Champions League final
01:20against either Arsenal or PSG.
01:23This was the best defensive team in Europe coming into this semifinal.
01:28And they won the semifinal 7-6 on aggregate, which tells me not only are they an exceptional defensive side,
01:38but they can flip the switch and play with an attacking team when they want to.
01:43And Barcelona played right into their hands.
01:47And so I really think that people shouldn't sleep on Inter.
01:52We want to keep a look at the lines when the Champions League final odds come out
01:56because there's a chance that the odds will sleep on Inter and we should watch for value there.
02:05Because while I think, you know, I still probably would favor Arsenal or PSG over them,
02:10certainly PSG, you've got to look at potential value here because it very well may be there.
