The green and white sea of Panathinaikos fans proved a hostile atmosphere on Tuesday night, as Mourinho’s men slightly lacked ambition in the first ten minutes. But when Brazilian, Mancini, opened the scoring and silenced the home crowd on the 27 minute mark, Inter went on to dominate and play their football, although the Greeks put up a good fight.
A number of new signings were on show at the Olympic Stadium; Mancini, Sulley Muntari and Ricardo Quaresma all made their Champions League debuts for the Nezzuri. But, the player that to the fans seemed most like he was making his debut was Adriano. The hot and cold Brazilian who was made surplus to requirements at the San Siro last year after a loan spell with Sao Paolo. Handed a second chance, he came off the bench in the second half and quickly latched onto a sublime ball by Ibrahimovic and drilled into the net. So, Inter top the group in what is a very promising start to the new Ueropean campaign.
