Cruz control revives Inter
FC Internazionale Milano's blushes, and those of their besieged coach Roberto
Mancini, were spared by two late goals from substitute Julio Cruz, the first
a penalty, but FC Porto will wonder how this UEFA Champions League Group H
game got away.
Eerily silent
Inter laboured all evening in an eerily silent stadium, but whether the
indiscretion of their fans last season was to blame for their plight was
immaterial in the end and now they are strong favourites to progress to the
knockout stage.
Trio absent
Inter, looking to put a recent mini-slump behind them, were without the
injured Ivan Cordoba while neither Esteban Cambiasso nor Javier Zanetti were
fit enough to start. The 24-year-old Argentinian Nicolas Burdisso made his
first start of the season at right-back and Chilean David Pizarro was given
another chance alongside Juan Sebastián Veron in midfield.
McCarthy benched
Porto coach Co Adriaanse stuck to the side that drew with Portuguese Cup
holders Vitoria FC at the weekend which meant no place for Benni McCarthy in
attack and, even more surprisingly, no place on the bench for fellow striker
Lisandro Lopez.
Few openings
Inter struggled to find any rhythm at all and it was not long before they were
made to pay in the most spectacular fashion when, direct from a free-kick 30
metres out, Hugo Almeida justified his selection ahead of McCarthy with a
thunderbolt that flew past Julio Cesar into the top corner of the Inter net.
As perfect a strike as will be seen all season.
Squandered chances
Adriano, attempting to return the compliment from a similar distance, hit the
massed ranks of empty seats 15 rows back. The big Brazilian went a little
closer with a near-post header moments later, and was then denied by Marek
Cech's intervention after good work by Obafemi Martins. Luis Figo later fired
one past the post from the edge of the Porto area, but Inter were flattering
to deceive.
Robust back line
Martins managed to get his head to a subsequent Figo cross but only succeeded
in directing the ball straight into Vítor Baia's arms, while Adriano looked
a touch slow to react when he found space inside the area and Pepe got the
block on his shot. There was scant encouragement for Mancini by half-time.
Brief break
Whatever he said to them at the interval, the Inter coach kept it brief as the
Nerazzurri players were back out ahead of their opponents, who sent on Raul
Meireles in place of Alan. For Inter it was not long before Cambiasso joined
the fray in place of Pierre Wome, with Figo switching to the left and Veron
to the right.
Martins miss
Adriano, plagued by a persistent shoulder injury, soon gave way to Cruz and
Sinisa Mihajlovic made his second appearance of the season in place of Walter
Samuel, but all the changes made little difference.
Penalty decision
Just when it was getting hard to see a way back for Inter, Porto captain Pedro
Emanuel mistimed a tackle on Pizarro just inside the Porto area and referee
Manuel Enrique Mejuto Gonzalez, who took charge of last May's epic final in
Istanbul, had no hesitation in pointing to the spot. Cruz dispatched the
penalty with aplomb.
Cruz crucial
Vitor Baía then did well to turn over a fierce free-kick from Mihajlovc?
but Inter, and Cruz in particular, were in the ascendancy and the
Argentinian's 82nd-minute header from Mihajlovic's corner crept in past
Meireles, standing guard on the post, to provide victory, and relief, for
Mancini's Inter.
目前積分：Inter 9, Rangers 5, Artmedia, Porto 3
後面兩場如果能拿下還是有機會的，加油吧～！
