Republic of Ireland defender James Abankwah’s first Serie A goal was a memorable one as it came at the famed San Siro, but his Udinese side still lost 5-3 to Inter Milan.
The former St Pat’s player left Inter goalkeeper Josep Martinez rooted to the spot with a ninth-minute header, and it got even better for the away side when Jurgen Ekkelenkamp doubled their advantage seven minutes later.
Inter were level by the break, Carlos Augusto and Nicolo Barella on target, and they made it five goals without reply through Marcus Thuram, Pio Esposito and Ange-Yoan Bonny before Idrissa Gueye struck a late consolation for Udinese.
