Marcus Thuram scored two head goals and commanded Inter Milan’s 2-0 win over Ajax on Wednesday (17), the opening of the Champions League League phase.
The Italian team sought to erase, when it was in Munich, and also came from two straight losses in Serie A.
However, he showed strength in the duel in Amsterdam, Johan Cruyff Arena, dominating the owners of the house. It was the highlight of the match.
Two goals in two corner
Three minutes before the break, Thuram appeared on the first post and deflected his head after a corner killed by Hakan Calhanoglu, surpassing Ajax’s defenders to open the scoring.
Early in the second half, after two minutes, the Frenchman scored again, again after collection of Calhanoglu corner kick.
This time, more centrally positioned, he climbed louder than the opposing defense and headed quietly to expand the advantage.
