Barella asks for a penalty in Inter-Bodo, his exaggerated simulation goes viral
Barella's sensational simulation in Inter-Bodo

Inter-Bodo Glimt was a match that was ultimately very disappointing for the Blues, who were eliminated from the Champions League. At the beginning, the tension was palpable, in the end it was a "home or away" match, it was the return of the Champions League play-offs, with the Blues wanting to overturn the 3-1 loss suffered in Norway. The scenario was as expected. Inter attacked, Bodo defended compactly. In the last minutes of the first half, the Blues asked for two penalties. The referee did not give any. There is little history, even looking at the footage, there is no second one either. Rewatching the video, you can see Barella "flying". And on social networks, there was a lot of irony about the flight of the Blues midfielder.

The Spanish referee Hernandez does not determine a penalty, and he is also right about the VAR not intervening. Barella is lightly touched, but after the ball has been touched by the opponent, and that rather pronounced flight causes a lot of discussion on social networks. From biting comments to ironic comments, the protagonist is the Sardinian midfielder who is accused of simulation.

A word that has recently been attached to another Inter player, Bastoni, who caused a storm in Inter-Juventus, and even afterwards. Because a simulation of his, later publicly acknowledged, caused Kalulu's expulsion and endless controversy, even from the world of refereeing.
