Substitutions: Pasquale for Coco (30 mn - Injury), Okan for Sérgio Conceição (63 mn) and Cannavaro for Crespo (82 mn)
Incidents: Vieri was lucky to not get sent off after elbowing Ayala' face when both players were chasing a deflected header from Réveillère in the 54th minute
Also Di Biagio after assaulting Aimar after the Valencia' playmaker questioned
Emre was sent off after an altercation with Valencia' Albelda (56 mn), an altercation that propagated through all the players except Valencia' Cañizares
Notes: Emre didn't take corners in this game but he was likely the one who would've done in case Internazionzale were given one before his dismissal
Okan played with a tendency to go from the right to the center, AMF on the right might suit him rather than RMF
Cannavaro played as right CB, relocating Córdoba as RB, Javier Zanetti as RMF and Okan as central AMF between the striker Vieri and the defensive midfielders Di Biagio and Cristiano Zanetti
