Corriere dello Sport: Bale flattens Inter in 3-1 victory
"Faced with a brilliant and aggressive Tottenham side driven by Bale, Inter stumbled awkwardly. Tottenham have revolutionised the standings in Group A. Inter must reflect that qualification is not compromised but the problems are all over the place.

"What a beautiful game! Inter v Tottenham was one of the most interesting head-to-heads of the season so far. Needless to say much of the credit lies with Spurs who played the perfect game. For Inter's part witnesses saw a team in trouble, numbers and condition. With this came deserved defeat.
