Eto’o helps side thrash Philippe Mexes

Former Chelsea and Everton striker Samuel Eto’o chalked up a lovely assist in Serie A over the weekend.

Eto’o, who now plays for Sampdoria, helped earn his side a 1-0 lead in the San Siro when the Cameroonian star nutmegged Philippe Mexes, which teed up Roberto Soriano for a 58th minute opener.

Milan were soon level when Nigel de Jong equalised in the 74th minute.

The match ended in a draw, that left AC Milan in eighth, while Sampdoria are sixth in the table (and level on points with fifth-placed Fiorentina).
