Inter Defender Named Man of the Match in UCL Semi-Final
Denzel Dumfries delivered a sensational performance under the lights at Camp Nou, earning the Man of the Match award in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final between Inter Milan and Barcelona.
The Dutch right-back was simply unplayable on the night. He was directly involved in all three of Inter’s goals, setting the tone early with an assist to Marcus Thuram in the opening minute. Then, in a stunning show of attacking prowess, he found the net twice himself. While the match ended in a draw, Dumfries’ individual brilliance ensured Barcelona were denied the home win they were clearly aiming for.
This season, Dumfries has featured in 40 matches across all competitions for Inter, scoring 10 goals and providing 4 assists—an emphatic response to the critics who questioned his consistency in previous campaigns.
