Good evening everyone, and welcome to Eurosport Yahoo!'s LIVE updates from Genoa's clash with Internazionale.

CHANCE FOR MESTO! A good move and Mesto looks to finish it with a placed shot angled into the far corner after the ball runs away from Toni - but Julio Cesar is well positioned for that one.

Eto'o on a surging run for Inter but he sees the ball taken off his feet by a watchful Dainelli.

TONI CLOSE! He did a superb job - first to keep the ball in, then to cut back from the wing and get into a shooting position inside the box - and then to hit a shot which forces a save from Julio Cesar and a corner!

Toni comes very close to playing in Criscito who has been making a nuisance of himself all evening with some useful runs down the left.

Lucio dispossessed but Samuel clears up the mess immediately.

The chat between Cambiasso and Benitez a couple of minutes ago was not a good one - the Argentine, only recently back from injury, is going to have to come off. Muntari has been lined up to replace him and is now on.

Coutinho has yet to make an impression so far - but watch out for Inter's attacking midfielder - he's just 18, and he clearly has talent.

Ranocchia is back on his feet. Coach Gasperini is giving little away on the touchline. Cambiasso has a chat with Benitez.

The ball is kicked out of play as Ranocchia stays down after a crunching tackle on the edge of the Inter penalty area. Good pressure from the hosts, however.

Rossi is set to play in a superb, whipped, dangerous cross... only to slip at the point of delivery and fall to the ground without hitting the ball. Whoops.

Maicon muscled off the ball as Inter look to get into the penalty area - as Mesto breaks it looks like Lucio has clattered him to the ground (and he has) but no foul is awarded. The home fans don't like that!

SNEIJDER FROM RANGE! Biabiany does well, cutting inside and sidefooting into Sneijder's path - his shot has decent pace but is saved comfortably low to the ground by Eduardo.

Cambiasso and Coutinho swap passes to get Inter out of their own half. Santon slows things down and looks right to find a little more space.

Rafinha has been lively for Genoa in these early exchanges, getting the hosts moving with purpose.

Beautiful play from Genoa! A sweeping ball left to Criscito - his cross steered by Toni into Mesto's path, and it's a shame about the cross-come-shot which goes into the netting once more.

Good ball from Criscito to find Toni - his first touch narrows the angle on goal considerably and his fierce shot is destined for the side netting.

Eto'o has the ball in the box and tries to trick his way into some space - but this time Ranocchia stands up to him well.

Both sides have had a moment or two to be happy with - let's hope it's the start of a good game.

Toni powers down the left hand side and tries a shot - but his left-footer is no challenge for Julio Cesar.

Milanetto's corner swirls in the evening air, and as dangerous as it looks it is cleared. The ball back in catches Chico offside.

A flare goes off behind the Genoa goal and there's some smoke in the air - Samuel thumps the ball away for a corner.
