Inter vs. Paris Saint-Germain: Score and Reaction from 2016 ICC

Paris Saint-Germain comfortably downed Inter Milan 3-1 in the 2016 International Champions Cup at Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Oregon, on Sunday afternoon.   

Right-back Serge Aurier opened the scoring for the Ligue 1 champions early on in the contest from close range before Stevan Jovetic pulled a goal back from the penalty spot on the stroke of half-time.

The French outfit then created a cushion in the second period after a direct free-kick 25 yards out from left-back Layvin Kurzawa before Aurier wrapped up the win with his second goal of the game in the dying moments.

PSG head coach Unai Emery chose to select a weakened starting lineup for his side’s opening match in the ICC. The former Sevilla boss named just four recognised first-team players, including captain Thiago Silva, Lucas Moura, Aurier and summer signing Hatem Ben Arfa.

In comparison, Inter manager Roberto Mancini named a strong starting XI for the friendly, with Rodrigo Palacio and Jovetic leading the line for the Nerazzurri.
