Reggina 2 - 3 Inter
Maicon 9 (I), Vieira 24 (I), Cozza 34 (R), Brienza 53 (R), Cordoba 91 (I)
Stadio Granillo
Inter threw away a 2-0 lead at the Granillo and needed an Ivan Cordoba stoppage-time strike to get the better of bottom of the table Reggina.
This was an important test of the Nerazzurri's title credentials after two consecutive 0-0 draws with Genoa and Fiorentina knocked them down to fourth place. There was also dissent in the ranks with Adriano and Julio Cruz frozen out following a row with Jose Mourinho. Esteban Cambiasso, Luis Jimenez, Sulley Muntari, Nelson Rivas and Luis Figo remained sidelined, although Patrick Vieira returned. Reggina were propping up the table and had earned all five of their points this season on home turf.
The Calabrians had won this fixture only once, in October 2000, followed by five defeats and three draws in which they scored two goals and conceded 12.
Reggina had the first shot on goal after 40 seconds, Julio Cesar smothering Luca Vigiani's effort from the edge of the box. Andrea Campagnolo was forced to backpedal furiously to pluck a long Douglas Maicon throw-in off the line, but Franco Brienza blasted over from a promising position.
It was a fast and furious start to the game, as five minutes in Ricardo Quaresma pounced on Bruno Cirillo's mistake to crack a right-foot shot against the base of the upright from nine yards.
Inter broke the deadlock with a splendid goal from Maicon. Zlatan Ibrahimovic shrugged off a defender down the right channel and rolled back for the on-rushing Maicon to smash an unstoppable rocket under the bar.
Mario Balotelli's audacious free kick from 25 metres and a tight angle almost pushed Campagnolo back into his own net, but Vigiani was furious when he appeared to be brought down from behind by Ivan Cordoba and the referee waved play on.
Inter doubled their advantage in very similar fashion to the first goal. Ibrahimovic again piunced on a loose ball and sparked a quick passing move that went through Quaresma to the unmarked Patrick Vieira down the same right channel for a low drive that nutmegged the goalkeeper. It was a fine way to celebrate the Frenchman's first start in almost a month.
Reggina were by no means cowed and got back into it with another fantastic strike. A corner kick was passed to the D where Ciccio Cozza unleashed a fierce right-foot shot that slotted into the near top corner with Julio Cesar rooted to the spot.
They almost completed an incredible comeback a minute later with Franco Brienza's free kick flashing across the face of goal. Cristian Chivu then had to intervene to stop Bernardo Corradi from nodding in.
However, Inter hit the back of the net on the counter and it was ruled offside. Amantino Mancini's magnificent through ball found Balotelli clear, but the 18-year-old hesitated and by the time he passed it back to Ibra the Swede was offside. Ibrahimovic was furious and did not keep his feelings to himself.
Reggina had a great chance on the stroke of half-time with a counter-attack and this time Cordoba's deflection was crucial to turn Cozza's effort past the far post.
The second half saw a big shock for Mourinho's men, as the Amaranto completed their comeback from 2-0 down to draw 2-2. Barreto surged forward and immediately rolled to the centre for Brienza's angled drive into the far bottom corner! Julio Cesar was at full stretch, but could not prevent Inter conceding two goals for the first time in Serie A this season.
Reggina's confidence was sky high and Vigiani blasted just over from distance, then Campagnolo smothered a Balotelli volley from seven yards. Hernan Crespo replaced Mancini - sending Balotelli out to the right flank - for a very attack-minded formation.
There was a huge scare when Campagnolo completely missed a Balotelli long cross to the back post, but Ibrahimovic nodded on to the side-netting of an open goal.
Ibra wasted another chance set up by Balotelli, scuffing the shot from eight yards. It was a very open game with both teams trying to win it and leaving space for the counter, as Campagnolo parried Balotelli's angled drive with his feet.
At the other end Chivu bravely flung himself at Di Gennaro's clear shot on goal from seven yards, picking up a knee injury in the process and he had to be substituted.
It was end-to-end stuff and Quaresma's trivela flashed across the face of goal, then a foolish Barreto backpass almost sent Ibra clear on goal. A soaring Crespo header from Quaresma's cross incredibly shaved a coat of paint off the upright.
Di Gennaro almost scored with a sensational swerving lob that was inches past the top corner with Julio Cesar backpedalling. On 86 minutes Carmona went on a strong run and skipped past Cordoba to bring a one-handed save out of Julio Cesar practically from the byline.
Cirillo did brilliantly to nod a chipped Ibra cross off the head of the unmarked Obinna, but from the resulting corner the ball ricocheted to the edge of the six-yard box for Cordoba's angled drive that slipped through a sea of legs.
