Inter Milan Vs. Napoli: Esteban Cambiasso Gives Inter The Lead At The Half

Esteban Cambiasso puts Inter Milan back in the lead, catching Napoli goalkeeper Morgan Di Sanctis entirely off guard. From a cross by Maicon, the midfielder threw his head forward, almost perfectly replicating Michele Pazienza's headed goal on the opposite end of the pitch. Just a few minutes before, both teams had missed fantastic opportunities to put their sides ahead. First, Christian Maggio sent an open shot just wide of the Inter Milan goal, then at the other end Diego Milito put the ball over the bar rather than into the net.

While Inter Milan still don’t appear quite as strong as they were last season under Jose Mourinho, they look much closer than they had earlier in the season. The side is heaping wave after wave of pressure on Napoli, who look rather nervous at the back. This is where one would mention that Napoli cannot be discounted due to the emergence of “Napoli-time”, that is, if one were not superstitious and believed that such mentions would alter the course of history.
