Live Commentary
Time:90'- Internazionale
- Bremen
90'+3 Thanks for joining us tonight... there's plenty of UEFA Cup action to enjoy tomorrow... be sure to join us then!
90'+2 And that's all there's time for! The full time whistle sounds and Bremen win a point in Milan!
90'+1 Oooh! Right at the death Bremen nearly steal all three points! Naldo hammers a free kick at Julio Cesar, who can only palm the ball out to Pizarro! But the on-loan striker lashes the rebound wide of the mark!- 90' Two minutes of added time to be added.
- 88' Oooh! Maicon goes so close to winning it for Inter! The full-back fires goalwards with the outside of his boot, only to see his effort strike the outside of the post!
86' Here comes another Bremen change... off goes Prodl and on comes Fritz.- 85' Ibra delivers a lovely ball into the mixer with the outside of his right boot! But Cruz can't quite get there, despite a gallent slide!
83' Jensen wastes no time at all in getting involved... yellow card for the Dane already.- 82' Ozil off, Jensen on, as Bremen look to sit on a point.
- 80' Oooh! Ibra back heels towards an unmarked Cruz in the centre! Only an alert Naldo stops the ball reaching its intended target...
- 78' Time for Bremen to make a change... off trots Rosenberg and on comes Aaron Hunt... and Inter make a change too as Julio Cruz replaces Adriano.
- 76' Quaresma lets fly with a long range effort... wide of the mark, but Inter are looking the more likely to grab a winner here.
- 75' Ibra wins another Inter corner as the hosts push forward... they seem to be un a rush to take it too...
- 72' Mourinho makes a change as his side chase a winner... Quaresma on for Stankovic.
- 71' Mertesacker rises to meet a corner with his head! But it's wide of the mark this time...
- 68' Frings is the next to go into the book... and Inter will have another free kick.
62' GOAL! Pizarro pulls Bremen level as he slides in to divert a back post Ozil cross past Julio Cesar! And the Bundesliga side are back on level terms! It's been coming since the break...- 61' Oh dear... Naldo takes it, but his effort is way, way over the bar.
- 60' Stankovic goes into the book for a trip on Diego... he deserves that one... and this could be dangerous... free kick 30 yards out.
- 58' Brilliant from Diego! He flicks a pass from Prodl up in the air before connecting on the half volley! Julio Cesar is equal to it though...
- 56' Pasanen fancies his chances from distance here... but the wind takes the ball way into the stands behind Julio Cesar's goal.
- 54' Adriano takes the free kick... but it's easy for Weise.
- 53' Yellow card for Diego as the Brazilian protests a little too much after a decision goes Inter's way....
- 52' Straight down to the other end and Ibra slices a half volley wide of the mark!
- 51' Ozil again brings Julio Cesar into action with another sharp drive! This time the Inter keeper hangs on to it at the first attempt!
- 48' Adriano lets fly! But the Brazilian drags his effort wide of the mark and Weise isn't troubled.
- 47' No changes to tell you about at the break... but both sides have players warming up on the sidelines.
46' Back underway in Milan!- 45'+2 Diego lofts it in... but the whistle goes and that'll be the end of the opening period!
- 45'+1 Muntari flies into a challenge and concedes a free kick, 35 yards out... this could be dangerous...
- 45' Oooh! Ballotelli gets on the end of Adriano's cross to prod the ball goalwards! But Weisse pulls out a super diving save to deny the youngster!
- 44' Oooh! Ozil brings Julio Cesar into action with a sharp shot from 25 yards out! The Inter keeper can't hold on to it, but scrambles to claim it at the second attempt.
- 43' Bremen are enjoying a bit of possession as the first half draws to a conclusion...
- 41' Pizarro tees up Rosenberg on the edge of the box... but the Bremen striker blasts the ball way into the stands behind Julio Cesar's goal! Better from the Bundesliga side...
- 40' OFF THE POST! Bremen so close to equalising! It's Pizarro who gets on the end of a Prodl cross but his rather mis-hit effort under pressure from Julio Cesar bounces against the upright and the Inter remain a goal to the good!
- 37' Stankovic! Oh, the Inter midfielder miscontrols just as the ball reaches him in the middle and the chance goes begging!
- 35' Deigo takes a tumble under a Muntari challenge, but the referee waves play on...
- 32' Zanetti does well to get to the by-line... the Argentine clips a cross into the middle, but there are no blue and black shirts there and Bremen are able to clear.
- 30' Cambiasso and Muntari with a neat little interchange on the edge of the box... Inter are looking the better side after half an hour of play...
- 27' Stankovic lets fly from 25 yards! But his effort hits Ibra and doesn't even get through...
- 25' This is better from Bremen... they're applying a bit of pressure on the Inter defence now... Ozil is orchestrating things out on the left... but he's unlucky not to win a corner as the ball cannons back off him for a goal kick.
- 23' Adriano looks to link up again with Ibra... but this time his deft back heel doesn't find its intended target and the chance to unlock the Bremen defence passes.
- 21' Adriano shows all his strength and pace to get past Bauman... and the Bremen man is forced into giving away a free kick... yellow.
- 19' Inter are forced into an early change... Materazzi hobbles off and is replaced by Burdisso. That could have major repercussions for the Nerazzurri...
- 14' Bremen try to hit back straight away and Diego forces Julio Cesar into action with a crisp effort from distance!
- 13' GOAL! Inter take the lead through Maicon! The ball falls to the Brazilian rather fortuitously after Bauman inadvertantly directs the ball into his path after a challenge with Adriano... Maicon takes it up, advances towards goal and dinks a lovely effort over the advancing Weise! Superb effort, and from a full back too!
- 10' Adriano and Ibra are linking up well tonight... this time the Brazilian wins another corner after a strong run forward.
- 9' But the third one doesn't come to anything, and Stankovic is pulled up for a foul on Ozil.
- 8' Materazzi rises to meet the corner... and Pizarro is forced into heading behind for another corner...
- 7' Adriano now feeds Ibra... the Swede controls the deep cross beautifully on his chest before firing a volley goalwards! Deflected behind for a corner!
- 6' Mourinho looks cool, calm and collected in the dugout... so far at least.
- 4' Worth noting that the stadium is far from full tonight... unlike the weekend's Milan derby, when you couldn't buy a ticket for love nor money.
- 3' Excellent opening at the Giuseppe Meazza!
- 2' At the other end, Naldo lets fly from distance! But he doesn't catch it too cleanly and the ball bounces into Julio Cesar's arms without causing any alarm.
- 1' Oooh! Ibrahimovic feeds Adriano in the middle... the Brazilain takes it down and launches a brilliant scissor kick goalwards! Inches over the bar!
1' Here we go! Underway in Milan!- - And tonight's referee is Lubos Michel (Slovakia).
