We are underway in the Club World Cup match between Monterrey and Inter at Rose Bowl in Pasadena.
CFM 0-0 INT (0바카라™)
Inter are playing a wide game, trying to build down the left side through players like Mkhitaryan and Asllani. Pavard has a wild shot from quite some distance, but it flies over the Monterrey goal.
The Mexican side, meanwhile, are yet to have a sniff at Sommer바카라™s goal.
CFM 0-0 INT (10바카라™)
All of the attacking impetus is coming from the Italian side, with Esposito바카라™s shot blocked by Guzman in the 14th minute. Monterrey are playing with a back five at the moment, with only three players in midfield, and Oliver Torres is clearly struggling to contain the Inter players in the middle of the park, who have two-thirds of ball possession in the early stages.
CFM 0-0 INT (17바카라™)
Darmian has a shot from the middle of the box after some exquisite play by Nico Barella, but the full-back blazes it wide over the bar. The first real chance for Inter Milan, and it goes to waste.
CFM 0-0 INT (22바카라™)
Few things are constant in life, but Sergio Ramos scoring from a header is one of them. A terrific ball into the box, and Ramos climbs over Lautaro Martinez to get a bullet header that gives Sommer no chance at all. 39 years old, ladies and gentlemen!
Monterrey lead totally against the run of play.
CFM 1-0 INT (25바카라™)
A massive chance for Esposito, who is handed an easy tap-in from six yards out by a cross from Augusto, but the #70 hit it straight at the feet of Andrada. This is wasteful play from Inter Milan.
CFM 1-0 INT (27바카라™)
Inter finally have parity right before the break, and it comes from an excellent free-kick routine. Asllani opts to float in a ball into the box from a dangerous position, and its crossed back across the face of the goal by Carlos Augusto for Lautaro Martinez, who taps it into an empty net to level the scores.
CFM 1-1 INT (42바카라™)
The referee adds nothing to regulation time, and it바카라™s half-time at Rose Bowl, with Monterrey holding on to a draw against heavy favourites Inter Milan.
CFM 1-1 INT (HT)
Both teams are level, courtesy of goals from Sergio Ramos (25바카라™) and Lautaro Martinez (42바카라™). Can Inter Milan make their dominance count in the next 45 minutes?
CFM 1-0 INT (46바카라™)
Inter almost scored one of the goals of the tournament as Bastoni turned into prime Ronaldinho and passed it to Barella, but his first-time shot went just over the bar. Monterrey are not taking it lying down, though, and are trying to break forward at any chance, especially through Ocampos.
Both teams change players as Erick Aguirre and Nelson Deossa come on for Monterrey in the places of Ricardo Chavez and Oliver Torres. Meanwhile Inter bring on Marcus Thuram and Luis Henrique, replacing Sebastiano Esposito and Benjamin Pavard.
CFM 1-1 INT (58바카라™)
So unlucky for Monterrey!! Despite a very difficult angle, Canales somehow hit the bottom post with a shot from 20 yards that beat Sommer, and Berterame could not get his foot to the rebound.
CFM 1-1 INT (64바카라™)
Martinez thought he gave Inter the lead with a cool finish after a ball from Barella, but the linesman flagged for offside. Replay shows that he was a yard off. Meanwhile, Inter make a change as Kristjan Asllani comes off for Petar Sucic.
CFM 1-1 INT (68바카라™)
Medina brings down Thuram right on the edge of the box, and the referee points for a바카라¦ corner! Nothing comes off it, though, but tempers are flaring. Andrada goes down injured after running into his own player while punching the corner away.
CFM 1-1 INT (74바카라™)
Ten minutes of regulation time left to play, and Inter still can바카라™t make their chances count. Martinez had a glorious opportunity on the turn after being found in the box, but his shot flew JUST above the bar. A player of his calibre had to score that, especially considering the match.
CFM 1-1 INT (80바카라™)
Monterrey are now defending with nine men behind the ball, with Ocampos as the lone striker up front for any potential counter-attacks. The possession is almost entirely with Inter, but they still can바카라™t break down the resolute Mexican defence.
CFM 1-1 INT (87바카라™)
Six minutes added on by the fourth official. Surprisingly, it is Monterrey who are attacking Sommer바카라™s goal in extra time. Is there a twist in the tale to come?
CFM 1-1 INT (90바카라™)
It바카라™s all over at Rose Bowl, with CF Monterrey holding UEFA Champions League finalists Inter Milan to a shock 1-1 draw. In fact, the Mexican side had the chance to get a late winner after substitute Deossa hit the side netting with a sliding shot. However, it바카라™s all square at the end of 90 minutes, and both teams share a point each in this Group E fixture.
CFM 1-1 INT (FT)
