Inter Milan Holds On To Tie Rubin Kazan

After losing Mario Balotelli in the 60th minute to his second yellow card of the afternoon, Inter Milan had to withstand a furious flurry of six shots in six minutes from Rubin Kazan to hang on for the 1-1 tie. One shot went off the post and Julio Cesar had to make two saves to ensure Inter would walk away with a point. This is Inter’s second draw of the Group Stage after playing to a 0-0 draw earlier this month with Barcelona. Rubin has to be pleased with the effort and the point after losing to Dynamo Kiev in Matchday One.

Barcelona and Dynamo are just about to begin play against one another as Matchday Two continues. A win by Dynamo would put them firmly in the lead in the powerful Group F, while a win by Barcelona would put significant pressure on Inter heading into the rest of the Group Stage.
