Milan's attack came back almost to fruition, this time it happened in the 43rd minute. Rafael Leao's flick again threatened the Blaugrana goal.
Getting pressure, it was Barcelona's turn to reverse the attack. In the 44th minute, it was Ferran Torres' turn to threaten AC Milan's goal with a header, but his effort was still blocked by the Milan goalkeeper.
Despite the fierce progress, unfortunately the first half still did not produce results for both teams. Until the referee blew the whistle indicating halftime the score was still 0-0.
Entering the second half, Barcelona's game changed along with the coach's decision to include Ansu Fati. The presence of Ansu Fati made Barcelona's attacks sharper and more dangerous.
