Arsenal went to Paris on Wednesday with belief and ambition, with dreams of a Champions League comeback.

And at the end of a Champions League semifinal for the ages, one of the wildest that soccer has ever seen, there was Inter Milan, roaring and somehow still standing.

Inter Miami had Lionel Messi and the most valuable roster in Major League Soccer. It had Luis Suárez and Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba and a starting 11 stocked with young South American talent. It had the highest payroll in MLS history and eyes on regional supremacy, so there was a hope, perhaps even an expectation, that Messi and Co. would reach the CONCACAF Champions Cup final. But on Wednesday, for the second time in six days, the Vancouver Whitecaps were simply better.
