#TBT ahead of Inter v Sampdoria: the 2005 comeback

MILAN

- This week's

#ThrowbackThursday

fittingly features Monday night's opponents Sampdoria. On 9 January 2005, the Nerazzurri trailed 2-0 late on to the side from Genoa but scored three quickfire goals to turn the match on its head.

That day, Roberto Mancini's team hosted the Blucerchiati in Week 18 of Serie A. It looked as if the visitors were going home with the points after strikes from Tonetto and Kutuzov late on in each half but two minutes from time, Inter halved the deficit through Obafemi Martins. Three minutes later, Christian Vieri levelled the scores and then, deep in stoppage time, Alvaro Recoba produced a stunning finish from outside the box to send San Siro wild.
