Ghana international, Kwadwo Asamoah is set to play a key role for Inter Milan when they come face to face against Tottenham in their crucial UEFA Champions League clash on Wednesday.

"Gazzetta dello Sport" emphasizes that the Ghanaian knows how to do it, having already faced the Londoners less than a year ago with Juventus.

It can be recalled that Max Allegri used the 29-year-old cleverly to overturn the tie in Juve’s favour after the Italian Champions had endured a difficult first leg.

Similarly, the versatile Black Stars midfielder is expected to be Luciano Spalletti's secret weapon to stop Mauricio Pochetino’s men who come into the match full of confidence on the back of their superlative display against Chelsea.

The Nerazurri will count on Asamoah’s experience of knowing how to handle the anxiety of a decisive clash.

His mission for Wednesday's challenge is to counter and also set a decentralized position when the Brozovic area is occupied by the Tottenham midfield.

Providing cover for the Croatian and the midfield will be crucial in ensuring the Italians remain compact and having a solid foundation to stop and build attacks.

The clash at Wembley will go a long way to deciding if Tottenham or Inter advance to the last-16 with Barcelona
