CL Match Report: Inter Milan Stunned By Fenerbahce
Fenerbahce 1-0 Inter Milan
It wasn't pleasant, and it most certainly wasn't pretty - for Inter Milan that is - as they crashed to a 1-0 defeat to Fenerbahce in Turkey...
A sensational first half striks from Deivid saw Fenerbahce pick up a 1-0 home win over Italian champions Inter Milan in Turkey.
Alex went past Maxwell inside the area, crossed it in, and Deivid's smashing overhead kick beat Julio Cesar to send the Turkish giants ahead on the stroke of half time.
It was a lead they would keep through the game despite the introduction of Luis Figo and Hernan Crespo, with Roberto Mancini's boys looking very flat.
To be fair to them, the Nerazzurri were hit by the absences of the likes of Vieira, Materazzi and Chivu. However they were still expected to put up a better show than they did, particularly with Ibrahimovic and Suazo up front.
It was Fenerbahce who had the better of the early exchanges, Mateja Kezman forcing a save out of Julio Cesar in the 9th minute after getting on the end of a dangerous cross.
There were some decent moved for Inter thereafter, but not enough teamwork to get passed the alert Turks. In fhe home side who had the next chance.
Roberto Carlos whipped in a rocketing cross-cum-shot from the left, one which Cesar let slip. Thankfully for him, the ball was cleared in the nick of time.
Inter were looking woefully out of sorts, and it looked like they would need some individual magic to get something from this game. That came, but at the wrong end, as Deivid's superb overhead kick found the back of Cesar's net on the stroke of half time.
The second half saw the likes of Figo and Hernan Crespo come on as Mancini tried everything he could. Nothing quite worked, though, as Alex ran the show for Fenerbahce, assisted by another great Champions League outing for the ageless Roberto Carlos.
The duo combined once again on the hour mark, but Cesar managed to keep the ball out of the net. Alex then found Edu with a dangerous free-kick, but the header went wide.
The final minutes saw some purpose shown by Inter, with Stankovic looking determined in particular, but nothing quite worked, which means that Inter will need to stage another group stage comeback.

Moratti: Blame The Players, Not Mancini
Internazionale president Massimo Moratti has opted not to point the finger at coach Roberto Mancini following his side's 1-0 defeat to Fenerbahce in Istanbul. Instead, he's pointed several fingers in the direction of the playing staff...
Massimo Moratti has blasted a segment of the Inter squad for what he saw as an unacceptable performance against Fenerbahce in last night's Champions League clash in Turkey.
The nerazzurri were ravaged by injury and suspension, leaving a makeshift team to face the Black Eagles, with Moratti being none too pleased with the display on show.
The president, who recently said that his decision not to fire coach Roberto Mancini was the last one, tried to take the pressure off the manager and onto the squad.
"I can't place all the responsibility on the coach when our night was ruined by the actions of several players," he whined.
"People ask questions at times of Mancini's personality and his tactics, but the players were fully equipped to succeed.
"But they didn't believe in themselves as they need to do; they need to not panic and instead put things right."
Inter face basement boys Livorno away from home in Sunday in Serie A.
