One of the world’s biggest rivalries took the stage in the 12th week of Italy Serie A. Inter and Milan duke it out in the Derby della Madonnina at Guiseppe Meazza. Massimiliano Allegri’s students won the match 1-0, marking a great away victory.
PULISIC TAKES THE STAGE
Both teams preferred a controlled game in the match, which had a balanced and low tempo in the first half. After the half ended 0-0, Milan started the second half with more enthusiasm and found the goal they were looking for in the 54th minute.
Goalkeeper Sommer had difficulty deflecting Alexis Saelemaekers’ hard shot into the penalty area. Following the returning ball well, Christian Pulisic shook the net with a well-placed shot and put his team ahead 1-0.
INTER WON THE PENALTY, HAKAN ÇALHANOĞLU MISSED
In the 73rd minute, Inter won a penalty following VAR review after Pavlovic’s intervention on Marcus Thuram. Our national star Hakan Çalhanoğlu, who took charge of the ball, could not pass goalkeeper Maignan and could not take advantage of the opportunity.
With this missed penalty, Çalhanoğlu failed to get a result from a penalty kick for the second time in his Italian career.
