Inter forward Marcus Thuram achieved a significant milestone by scoring two headers in his team`s Champions League opening match against Ajax in Amsterdam.

Remarkably, the only other Nerazzurri player to accomplish this feat was Hernan Crespo during the 2002-03 season, also against Ajax, adding a layer of historical coincidence to Thuram`s achievement.
