Inter 1-0 Atalanta: Jovetic the last-gasp hero

A last-gasp winner from debutant Steven Jovetic handed Inter a 1-0 Serie A victory over 10-man Atalanta.

Stevan Jovetic made an instant impact on his Inter debut as he spared Roberto Mancini's blushes with a stunning 94th-minute winner to secure a 1-0 victory over 10-man Atalanta.

The Montenegro star arrived from Manchester City for €12 million ($13.6 million) during the preseason and, although he did not start at San Siro, the former Fiorentina forward marked his return to Serie A in style, clipping in a delightful finish to rescue a wasteful Inter at the death.

Despite its dominance, Inter had great difficulty turning its surperiority into chances during the first half, with Alejandro Gomez's early chance no doubt worrying Mancini.
