turns out its primavera Vs Sheffield.

Dont know why players like Cesar and Adriano couldnt of made the trip.

 

[shahz_nerazzurri]

This thread shouldnt be here, since its an Inter Primavera game. Is it our primavera vs their primavera, or is it our primavera vs their first team?

Would be intresting to see how Slavkoski, Ballotelli, Filkor and Dennis Esposito perform.

Are Sheffield FC in Championship, or further down below?

 

[snake]

pretty sure its our primavera vs their team and their primavera vs sao paolo's primavera.

MILAN - Inter Primavera are set for an appointment with history. On Thursday 8 November Vincenzo Esposito's Scudetto-winning side will face Sheffield FC, the oldest football club in the world, as part of the English team's 150th anniversary celebrations.

World football legend Pelé will kick off the friendly match, to be played at Championship side Sheffield United's Bramall Lane ground, which boasts a capacity of 33,000 and is the oldest major stadium in the world still to be hosting professional football matches.

Sheffield FC was founded on 24 October 1857 by William Prest and Nathaniel Creswich who chose football as a valid alternative to cricket to keep their fitness levels up during the winter months. An amateur club, Sheffield FC are the only other team besides Real Madrid to have been awarded the FIFA Order of Merit.

They currently play in the Unibond Northern Premier League Division 1 South and are fourth in the table, 5 points behind leaders Retford United but with two games in hand.

Primavera coach Vincenzo Esposito is without injured defender Daniele Federici and three other players (Francesco Bolzoni, Gabriele Puccio and Paolo Tornaghi - all called up for the first team's Champions League match against CSKA Moscow) for Thursday's clash.

Inter's Under-19 side leave for Sheffield tomorrow and will train at Bramall Lane on Thursday afternoon ahead of the historic match.

Inter Primavera squad for Sheffield FC friendly:

Goalkeepers: Vid Belec (1990, Slovenia), Paolo Branduani (1989).

Defenders: Francesco D'Angelo (1990), Nicolas Desenclos (1989, France), Dennis Esposito (1988), Ivan Fatic (1988, Montenegro), Marco Filippini (1988), Fabio Perissinotto (1989).

Midfielders: Attila Filkor (1988, Hungary), Renè Krin (1990, Slovenia), Ibrahim Maaroufi (1989, Morocco), Saverio Macrì (1988), Daniele Pedrelli (1988), Salvatore Papa (1990), Giorgio Schiavini (1990), Luca Siligardi (1988).

Strikers: Mario Balotelli (1990), Alberto Gerbo (1989), Gianluca Litteri (1988), F.Mancini (1990), Aiman Napoli (1989), Goran Slavkoski (1989, Sweden).

Materazzi, Pelé with Primavera in Sheffield

A world champion for the 150th anniversary of Sheffield FC, the oldest football club in the world.

After training at the Centro Sportivo Angelo Moratti this morning, Marco Materazzi joined up with the Inter Primavera squad ahead of Thursday's friendly match at Bramall Lane (kick-off 19:45GMT).

Materazzi is not the only first team player travelling to Sheffield with Inter's Under-19 team. Portuguese youngster Pelé has been drafted into Vincenzo Esposito's squad and will therefore have the chance to meet his Brazilian namesake, who will kick off the friendly match.

This makes it interesting. I really would like to see Matrix playing again. I hope he does well!!
