Lautaro Martínez's injury during Inter's 3-3 draw against Barcelona in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals has raised serious concerns for the Italian club. According to La Gazzetta, the Argentine striker has suffered a muscle strain in his left thigh, forcing him to be substituted during the match. While Inter fans were hoping for good news after the intense draw, the injury to Lautaro has made the return leg even more uncertain.

With the second leg in Milan now approaching, there are fears that Lautaro may be sidelined for this crucial encounter. The absence of the team's star forward would be a huge setback, especially considering his importance to Inter's attacking play. His leadership and ability to score under pressure make him a key player for Simone Inzaghi's side.

Following Lautaro's departure from the pitch, Mehdi Taremi, the new addition to Inter, came on to replace him. Taremi has been gradually adapting to his role at the club, and his performance will be vital if Lautaro is unavailable for the return leg.

As the team prepares for the decisive match, Inter fans are holding their breath, hoping Lautaro's injury will not keep him out of action for long. The clash with Barcelona is far from over, and Lautaro's fitness will be crucial for their hopes of advancing to the final.
