Mancini to hand son Filippo Inter Milan debut

Roberto Mancini will hand son Filippo his Inter Milan debut tonight in their Coppa Italia clash with Reggina.

Filippo Mancini, 17, is a midfielder and will start the game on the bench.

"It is an unusual feeling, but that's only to be expected," said proud Dad Mancini Snr. "If I have to ask him to warm up, I'll call him Filippo rather than Mancini. It'd be weird otherwise!"
