Although the game ended in an equally strong draw, Sacchi Milan’s performance was very good.
REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, MILAN – Legendary Italian trainer Arrigo Sacchi mentions AC Milan showing the quality of European class play against Inter Milan in the Derby della Madonnina match at San Siro Stadium on Monday (8/11).
Although the game ended in a 1-1 draw, for Sacchi Milan’s performance was quite satisfactory. According to him, the Rossoneri appeared in a good mood to continue to put pressure on the Nerazzurri.
“The first half, Milan immediately hit the accelerator. They kept the pace that I define as a European game, in the sense that in Italy, they played more slowly,” Sacchi explained, quoted by Football Italia, Tuesday 9/11.
Milan actually conceded the first thanks to a penalty from ex-player Hakan Calhanoglu in the 11th minute. However, this advantage did not last long after Stefan de Vrij scored an own goal which made it 1-1.
The Nerazzurri could have taken the lead after receiving a penalty in the 27th minute. Fortunately, Milan goalkeeper Ciprian Tatarusanu managed to read Lautaro Martinez’s kick.
Sacchi, who also brought success to Milan in the late ’80s and early’ 90s, said the squad was formed. Stefano Pioli managed to show composure while playing the game.
“Milan managed to squeeze in the attacking zone and stole a lot of balls at Inter. Like us, you are climbing at a breakneck pace,” continued the bald.
With this result, Milan extended their unbeaten run to 12 appearances in Italian Serie A 2021/2022. The Rossoneri temporarily occupy second position with a cumulative 32 points in 10 wins and two draws.
