The Brazilian felt the introduction of Vidal changed the game and helped inspire Barça to victory

Following FC Barcelona's come-from-behind victory over Inter Milan, Arthur Melo pointed to the moment Arturo Vidal came on as being key to turning the team's fortunes around.

"Every player has his own strengths but it's clear that Arturo helped us pressure further up the pitch. It's what the team needed," admitted Arthur. He praised the backing from the supporters throughout the game and dismissed claims that he fouled Sensi in the penalty area.

The other star of the show last night was Luis Suarez who scored two crackers to put Barça ahead on the night. "They helped us a lot because it was a very difficult match. Everyone deserves praise for this victory." Arthur also felt that the team failed to pressure properly as a unit but Valverde's half-time speech, and tweaks, fixed that and Barça took control of the tie.
