Ibrahimovic and Eto’o kept quiet in stalemate

ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC and Samuel Eto’o were both kept under wraps by their former team-mates as Inter Milan held Champions League holders Barcelona to a goalless draw at the San Siro last night.

The quick return of the two strikers to their old clubs dominated talk in the build-up to this Group F match, with Barca having this summer given Inter €46m plus Eto’o – valued at €20m – in exchange for Ibrahimovic.

The Swede was much more involved than his Cameroon counterpart as treble winners Barca spent large parts of the game going forward, but neither player, or anyone else for that matter, was able to find the breakthrough as defences came out on top.
