GENOA VS. INTER: LONG-RANGE MAGIC

Ahead of Wednesday's trip to the Ferraris, we look back at a superb strike from Stankovic during the 2009-10 campaign

<p><strong>MILAN</strong>&nbsp;- &ldquo;This is a goal that in 10-15 years I will tell my kids about.&rdquo; Coming against Genoa at the Ferraris, <a href="https://youtu.be/8WlBl03jsjg?t=1028"><strong>Dejan Stankovic</strong></a> scored an unforgettable goal &ndash;&nbsp;a first-time right-footed volley from midfield. After the game, he was even able to deconstruct it with ease: &ldquo;I moved to the right, hoping that Ameilia (Genoa&rsquo;s goalkeeper) would make a mistake. The ball then fell to me and I didn&rsquo;t think twice, even though I could&rsquo;ve looked stupid. Instead, it was a masterpiece.&rdquo; An extraordinary goal, and one that needed a real genius to even try it. It took place on 17 October 2009, with Deki scoring Inter&rsquo;s third during a 5-0 win. Cambiasso, Balotelli, Vieira and Maicon were the other names on the scoresheet.</p> <p>Amazingly, <a href="https://www.inter.it/en/archivio_giocatore/G0764" target="_blank">Stankovic</a> proved that this was no fluke two years later in the Champions League when he scored a similar strike against Schalke. As for the 5-0 victory against Genoa, this remains Inter&rsquo;s biggest win away to the Rossoblu. It&rsquo;s always a tough trip when playing in Liguria, yet the following season <a href="https://www.inter.it/en/archivio_giocatore/G0805" target="_blank">Ibrahimovic</a> also lit up the Ferraris with a sumptuous lob. Meanwhile, in October 2010, Muntari inspired another Nerazzurri win with a long-range strike that beat Eduardo.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
