MILAN - Adriano headed in the winner as the Nerazzurri saw off Anorthosis Famagusta in Matchday 3. The Brazilian striker, Inter's all time top scorer in the Champions League, took his tally to 18 with a well taken goal just before the break. The result sees Mourinho's men open up a three-point gap at the top of Group B, with Panathinaikos drawing 2-2 at home to Werder Bremen in tonight's other match. Anorthosis had the first shot on target with Francesco Toldo, in for Julio Cesar, making a punched clearance from Dellas' well struck free kick. From then on in it was all Inter, and Stankovic tried a repeat of his goal against Roma at the weekend, scything just over from 25 yards. Muntari had a shot saved by Beqaj's foot after a brilliant move involving Brazilian trio Adriano, Maicon and Mancini as Inter pinned back the Cypriots. Front men Adriano and Ibrahimovic then had two chances each before the Emperor rose unmarked in the box to head home a cross from Maicon, who turned Savio in the box after Ibrahimovic's crossfield pass. Anorthosis saw more of the ball after the restart and went close to an equaliser through Katsavakis in the opening minutes. But the Nerazzurri stayed in control and created chances to build on their lead, with Muntari heading over a Mancini cross and Ibrahimovic slotting wide of the far post before substitute Julio Cruz drilled inches wide in the final stages. |

Serie A: Inter 0-0 Genoa MILAN - Defending champions Inter are joined on top of the Serie A table by Udinese and Napoli after being held to a goalless draw by Genoa in Week 8. There was no way through at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza as Gasperini's men ended the Nerazzurri's sixty-match scoring run in home league games. Mourinho's men were quickest out of the blocks and could have taken a 2nd-minute lead through Ibrahimovic after a cross from Quaresma. Genoa captain Marco Rossi then missed a sitter from two yards out after a cross from Diego Milito, who continued to apply the pressure when he had a header saved in the 22 minute. Inter rallied and Ibrahimovic sent a fine shot just over before Quaresma narrowly missed the top right corner with a curling shot. Unfazed, the Rossoblu hit back and Ivan Juric blasted wide his follow-up after Julio Cesar parried Milito's shot. Seconds later, Mesto saw his long-range effort bounce back off the bar. Mourinho shuffled his pack at the break, introducing pacy strikers Balotelli and Obinna for Adriano and Quaresma, and the Nigerian almost had an instant impact when he fired wide after sidestepping Criscito. The Inter boss was forced to make his third change just ten minutes in, bringing on Julio Cruz after Muntari was stretchered off injured. Genoa survived a let-off when Marco Rossi unwittingly headed Maicon's cross on to the bar, and Inter's task looked to have been simplified when Juric was dismissed for a second booking in the 60th minute. The Nerazzurri peppered the Genoa area with shots in their frantic search for a goal. Balotelli was twice thwarted by Rubinho, with Chivu and Obinna firing wide and Julio Cruz going close with a cross-shot. Against the run of play, the visitors almost snatched a winner deep in injury time when Julio Cesar made a good save from Motta's free kick. Inter suffered a second midfield injury blow in time added on when Stankovic pulled a muscle while making a defensive clearance. |

Ancelotti: Mourinho's Methods Are Questionable
Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti talked about his team's state of form and discussed the tough methods of his Inter colleague Jose Mourinho. ![]() He discussed about Milan's recent performances, saying that his charges need to make more effort in improving their consistency. "In this period, even though we have made improvements, we have not been consistent," he said. "Compared to when we won the Scudetto in 2004, we can't seem to play well consistently. I think this is because of the absence of Pirlo. "In this last period we have had to use other weapons to win, like sacrifice and team work. Let's hope we have him back in about 20 days. That said, it is also positive that our team spirit is so strong." The coach also talked about the injured players and the Alexandre Pato's start to the season: "I think that both Nesta and Senderos could come back next week against Braga. Pato still has some limits, which he is trying to eliminate in this period. He especially needs to learn to be more ruthless and confident inside the area." He then went on to comment on Mourinho's decision to leave out players who do not follow his precise instructions and the Scudetto race with Inter. "I don't think Mourinho is nervous, he is just determined, but I don't see why I always have to comment on his words," Ancelotti continued. "Inter? Everyone can see it's a balanced season. We only have to think about our own season and be in first place at the end. "Last Thursday I had 12 players come in late [because of a road accident]. If I used Mourinho's methods I would have had to use the youth team," he chuckled. Milan leapfrogged Inter in the standings for the first time in almost three years with the midweek victory against Siena (2-1). They are now just one point below joint leaders Udinese and Napoli.
