Social media took centre stage at San Siro on Tuesday, as Inter's players wore shirts with online handles replacing their names.

As part of "#InterSocialNight', the Serie A giants made the unusual announcement prior to their clash with Cagliari.

The scheme saw the shirt name of Inter star man Ivan Perisic changed to @IvanPerisic444, while captain Mauro Icardi was handed an @MauroIcardi jersey to reflect his Instagram account handle.

Luciano Spalletti's side headed into the encounter on the back of a three-game winless streak which has enabled both Lazio and Roma to overtake them in the race for a top-four finish.
