    • CSKA Moscow
    • Internazionale
    • - Thank you for joining eurosport.yahoo.com for tonight's Champions League action. We'll be back with the rest of this week's matches tomorrow - so be there!
    • 90+3' The match ends with Inter running out winners. They now top Group G.
    • 90' We are in injury time at the end of the 90. There will be three minutes added on.
    • 88' You sense that the home fans are beginning to accept their fate, although they are trying to keep their chants going.
    • 85' CSKA with the ball but unable to penetrate the Inter defence...
    • 82' Carvalho with space 30 yards out... his shot is deflected wide of the post. The crowd bagan to believe there for a moment...
    • 80' It was a huge mistake by Mandrykin! Samuel headed the ball down and it took a wicked bounce - but the 'keeper must save that. He's shipped it into the goal. Disaster for CSKA.
    • 80' Figo whips in a free-kick and INTER HAVE ANOTHER GOAL!!!!
    • 77' Inter change: Solari on for Dacourt.
    • 76' The sub is to be subbed: Eduardo replaced by Pole Janczyk for the Russian club.
    • 74' Zhirkov with a clever pass inside for Jo to turn and shoot into the side netting! There was a deflection and it will be a corner... Inter clear.
    • 72' CRUZ MUST SCORE... he heads it wide! There was no one in his way but he missed the target from five yards! Seconds later he misses again from the same place on the floor as a CSKA leg blocks!
    • 71' The ball is set up for Stankovic from a free-kick... he blazes it quite a way over the top.
    • 69' CSKA now with a lot more possession. No way through as yet though... The impetus is with them.
    • 65' Krasic again with space in the box, this time on the floor... his shot is blocked. CSKA coming back into the game and the fans are behind them.
    • 65' Substitute Eduardo crosses from the right for Krasic... over the top.
    • 63' Inter sub: Crespo does not look happy as Mancini takes him off for Julio Cruz.
    • 61' Carvalho surges for goal but hits the deck just outside the penalty area... is that a free-kick? No - Riley waves a yellow card at the Brazilian for diving.
    • 60' Figo's set-pice defeats most of the defence to the far post where Crespo heads across goal... no one is there to finish it off.
    • 57' Stankovic played in on the right by Figo and his low ball to the back stick is smashed JUST OVER THE BAR! Ibrahimovic again with the chance.
    • 55' Carvalho hits a free-kick into the box and Rahimic is in behind to volley... into the arms of Cesar. He didn't catch it well. Visiting coach Roberto Mancini must have feared the worst there.
    • 54' Inter should take the lead when Zlatan lets a ball go through his legs a couple of yards out! It is not like the Sweden striker to miss one like that.
    • 52' The corner was cleared and headed back in - Klasic misjudged and Crespo found himself in behind to finish into the far corner. There was a suspicion of offside there... but the equaliser stands.
    • 52' GOAL FOR INTERNAZIONALE!!!
    • 51' Cambiasso volleys at goal after a flick by Ibrahimovic and the ball is deflected wide by Ignashevich! Corner kick to Inter - good effort.
    • 50' Stankovic with a wasteful diagonal ball towards the box. Ibrahimovic and Crespo try to combine, but nothing doing... Inter frustrated.
    • 48' CSKA battling to stop the Serie A club from making it to their final third. It's a case of 'anywhere will do' already as the defence welly one clear!
    • 46' The second half begins with no further changes. The onus is on Inter then to come back and prevent the Russian outfit from moving above them in the group table.
    • 45+3 Half time blown at the Olympic Stadium in Moscow, and it's the home side who lead over a lacklustre Inter.
    • 45+1 Ibrahimovic flicks the ball into the path of Crespo. He squares it for the offside Stankovic, who was well marked by Grigoriev anyway, but that's a sign of what Inter will need to do in the second half to get back in this game.
    • 44' Another injury, and another change! Alexei Berezutsky has a nasty gash on his shin from the challenge by Figo, and is driven off on the buggy to be replaced by Grigoriev.
    • 43' Figo goes in high and late and gets a booking from referee Mike Riley. That could and perhaps should have been a red card!
    • 41' Dud can't continue, and is replaced by Eduardo, another of CSKA's five Brazilians.
    • 39' Figo puts in the cross from the right. Crespo flicks it on to IBRAHIMOVICH AT THE FAR POST... Great save Mandrykin! Ibrahimovic's header bounced in front of the Russian keeper but he manged to palm it away!
    • 37' Ibrahimovic barges in front of Dudu chasing the ball. Dudu goes down clutching his ankle and goes off for treatment.
    • 34' Maxwell sends in a diagonal ball to the far post for CRESPO... The Argentinian was at too wide an angle and hits the sidenetting!
    • 31' GOAL! Jo finishes fantastically! Carvalho rolls it to Jo on the edge of the box, and the Brazilian turns Cordoba and pitches the ball over Julio Cesar into the top corner! Great goal! Inter have it all to do now.
    • 29' Zhirkov does well to hustle the ball off of Figo in the inter box, and he squares it for DUDU!! The Brazilian steers it just wide of the near post with Julio Cesar rooted to the spot! Big let-off for Inter!
    • 24' Dacourt puts a ball over the top and Ibrahimovich gets it at the byline. He tries to square it to Crespo when Figo was begging for it to be cut back to him at the edge of the box! Poor decision-making from the man who will tell anyone who'll listen that he's the best in the world.
    • 23' CSKA have a corner, and both the Berezutskys are up for it. Maxwell clears for another one, but again it's cleared and Inter move it out. It must be very difficult to break out at pace on this pitch.
    • 19' Berezutsky plays in Carvalho with his back to goal. The Brazilian tries to backheel it to Jo in the box, but he messes it up and ends up looking a bit silly.
    • 16' An early substitution for Inter, and an injury scare for Patrick Vieira. The niggling thigh injury he's been carrying has forced him to come off early, to be replaced by Stankovic.
    • 12' Ibrahimovic is in goal, and goes down under the challenge of Ignashevich! NO PENALTY! Good decision by the referee. The defender used his strength fairly to put the Swede off his stride.
    • 11' This pitch is in pretty bad shape, with the midfield and goalmouths pretty chopped up. Apparently there is a really good artificial surface in Moscow, maybe they should have used that one instead.
    • 9' CSKA win a free kick, about 35 yards out. Carvalho strikes... it's low but with no real power. Julio Cesar gets down to it and almost spills it! He gets his hands on the ball at the second time of asking.
    • 8' Vieira slots through a great ball into the path of Crespo, who tried to run back onside but was just too late!
    • 6' Inter are happy to play dirty to stop the home side creating chances. First Dacourt fouls Carvalho, then Figo tumbles over Dudu. They obviously want to bully CSKA's creative talent out of the game.
    • 5' Figo whips in a ball that just behind Zlatan and just too far in front of Crespo! The Moscow defence really should have dealt with that.
    • 3' Berezutskiy hits a lovely long ball forward with the outside of his boot. carvalho is onto it but he's offside.
    • 1' Welcome to eurosport.yahoo.com's LIVE coverage of CSKA Moscow v Inter Milan! The match is underway!
