    • 90+2 Samuel is unlucky to be called offside when he drove home from just inside the area after a free-kick... Crespo was coming back from an offside position, not Samuel.
    • 89' Four minutes of injury time being played...
    • 85' INTER SUB: Materazzi on for Pele.
    • 78' Solari plays it across to Maicon who feeds Crespo who can bring the ball back for Zlatan but blocked for the corner.

    • 74' Rocchi runs onto a through ball with the defender on his heel and he hammers a brilliant curler for the top left but tipped away acrobatically by Julio Cesar! Corner!
    • 72' Rocchi tries a long-range lob but it goes well wide.
    • 71' Great save by Julio Cesar from Meghni driving low from the edge of the box, the ball is still loose but Inter get it clear.

    • 62' INTER SUB: Crespo on for Suazo.

    • 59' Jimenez is through, takes it on his chest and flicks it over the defender, great run and he slides past the last man but he fires over!
    • 54' Cambiasso in his own half, he spreads a glorious curlin crossfield pass wide left to Suazo who nods it on and is clear of the last defender and just slides it under Ballotta for 3-0! Game, set and match to Inter.
    • 48' Suazo with a chance, getting between Zauri and Kolarov but just unable to finish.
    • 46' Second half underway!
    • 45' Half-time, comfortable lead for Inter.
    • 42' Rocchi on the ball, wide right, inside to Mudingayi as Lazio try to play keep ball... and Ledesma tries a long-range effort which is poor and flies well over.
    • 36' Zanetti is free on the left and tries a cross which is put behind but the flag is up, he was offside.
    • 33' Corner to Inter on the left... sent into the six yard box and the Lazio defenders are totally static and Maicon sneaks in to make it 2-0! Shocking defending, Inter in control.
    • 31' Another free-kick to Inter, swung in from the right for Zlatan but headed clear and it falls to Maicon with the drive but parried by Ballotta AND IT FALLS TO SUAZO WHO FINISHES but the flag was up, offside.
    • 29' Mauri centres from the right to ROCCHI WITH THE OVERHEAD FLICK but it bobbles just wide of the left hand post!
    • 26' Mauri with a surging run, he finds Rocchi who tries to get past Samuel and fouls his man in the process, Inter free kick.
    • 22' Zlatan will take the spot kick... and he makes no mistake, into the roof of the net for 1-0.
    • 20' Corner to Inter on the right... swung into the box and Burdisso I think goes down in a heap with Stendardo, and the ref has called the foul... Penalty to Inter! That looked harsh, six to one half a dozen for the other.
    • 17' Free-kick to Inter about 30 yards out which Zlatan will take... and he hammers in a vicious drive but Ballotta gets down to save! He parried and claimed it at the second attempt, good effort from the Swede.
    • 15' Great play by Zlatan to take a high ball down on his chest and he drills the shot in but he sends it into the ground, killing its momentum and into the arms of Ballotta.
    • 14' Good play from Mauri, goes wide left to Zauri who fires the cross in and Mauri flies in for the header but hits the deck claiming the penalty but it falls to PANDEV ON THE RIGHT but his half-volley flashes inches wide of the far post!
    • 12' Another superb ball in from the left and Zanetti goes down but nothing given! Suazo is furious but no penalty.
    • 10' Lovely skills from Zlatan on the left but he can't get the cross away so goes back to, er, Pele, who swings it in but despite some mild panic in the box Lazio clear.
    • 8' Dangerous cross in from Zauri on the Lazio left but Maxwell clears...
    • 1' Match underway in Milan!
    • - Hello and welcome to the rescheduled match between Inter and Lazio - cancelled after fan rioting and the fatal shooting of Lazio fan Gabriele Sandri by police. LIVE on eurosport.com from 19:30 GMT!
