A GAME BETWEEN DAVID AND GOLIATH.

In the B group match between the Italian Giants Intermilan and a small team from Cyprus called Anortosis Famagusta. This club from Cyprus were the babbys of the tournament , and this was also the first time a club from Cyprus has ever played in a Champion League .
The Intermilan coach who always called himself the SPECIAL ONE, was in for a big suprise. The Italian fans expected a score line of 3-0. But it was not so.
The Italian attacked again and again, and from the side as well. But the main Wall for the Cyprus team as their goalkeeper, who was alert,sharpand very agille, he also had two very strong hands. I strongly feel he had the class of Gianlughi Buffon, and Petr Cechand scouts were shore watching him.
It took the Itaalian team a total of fourtyfour minutes for the first and only goal to be scored. It was scored by the Brazilian Adriano, to calm the San Siro crowds nerves.
In the second half Adriano and his Sweedish strike partner had chances , and made more chances with the help of a third striker, but they failed to score another goal as Mourinho always knows that one goal is never ever safe.
The game ended 1-0 in favour of Intermilan.. But the Cyprt team could hold their heas high.
