  Emiliano Viviano Top of the Match

  Was barely tested in the first half but produced an excellent save to deny Sneijder from a free kick.

  Andrea Esposito

  Did well against Eto'o in the first period but picked up a needless booking for bodychecking Sneijder on the counter.

  Miguel Angel Britos

  Solid display, snuffed out any danger and brought the ball out of defence well.

  Daniele Portanova

  Won his duel with Milito, was like a shadow to the striker at times and did not give him an inch in which to operate.

  Matteo Rubin

  Pandev was a mere spectator in the first half thanks to Rubin, we commanded his area well and even broke forward on occasion.

  Federico Casarini

  Got forward to help his attackers and placed some excellent pressure on the Inter backline.

  Gaby Mudingayi

  Dominant in the centre of the pitch. His battle with Mariga was phenomenal. Positioning was excellent, he cut out many an Inter pass and screened the backline superbly. Was almost brought off until Di Vaio remonstrated for him to be kept on.

  Albin Ekdal

  Did his fair share in the middle, supported well and helped out at the back. Taken off for Della Rocca after an hour.

  Gyorgy Garics

  Gave Chivu a torrid time as he got in behind the full back and unlucky not to score as his first half snap shot was inches wide.

  Henry Giménez

  Another who worked tirelessly but his final ball was lacking. Could have scored early on but his chipped effort into an open goal went sailing over the crossbar.

  Marco Di Vaio

  Worked hard against two powerhouse defenders and caused problems for them. Tired in the second half though as his age caught up with him.

  Was almost brought on for Mudingayi earlier but eventually replaced Garics late on.

  Lack of communication with Lucio almost cost Inter but didn't have too many saves to make.

  Javier Adelmar Zanetti

  Solid at the back but failed to provide the thrust going forward that Maicon does.

  A few lapses in concentration but put that behind him and powered on in the second half.

  Walter Adrian Samuel

  Clashed heads with Di Vaio resulting in a cut forehead and had a tasty duel with the frontman.

  Cristian Chivu

  Somewhat suspect at full back and was the weak link in the first period, but improved in the second half.

  M. Mariga

  Inter's workhorse, he was everywhere. Had the best chance in the first half for the visitors but his shot flashed wide. Booked for reacting to a bad challenge.

  Esteban Matias Cambiasso

  Passed by in the first half but tried to drive his team to a winner in the second.

  Wesley Sneijder

  All Inter's best attacking moves stemmed from the Dutchman. His set-pieces were causing huge problems for Viviano and he almost won it for his team with a deflected free kick right at the death.

  Anonymous in the first half and hooked for Coutinho in the second.

  Eto'o

  Did his best on the left flank, but Esposito dealt with him well. Looked more threatening as the game wore on.

  Looked lively when he came on but gave the ball away all too often.
