Inter Milan beat local rival AC Milan 5-2 in the Milan derby. This game is the highlight of this round of Serie A.
Inter Milan further widened the points gap with AC Milan.
"Gazzetta dello Sport" chief reporter Di Gennaro has become a die-hard supporter of Li Ang. He praised Li Ang in his column and even called Li Ang the head coach that Inter Milan has been waiting for for ten years!
AC Milan boss Silvio Berlusconi was very angry and even a little frustrated about AC Milan's defeat in the derby. Berlusconi even showed the white flag after the game. After the defeat in the derby, he said: "We can no longer do anything about the league.
The gap with Juventus cannot be filled."
AC Milan forward Shevchenko was also frustrated, "Obviously Juventus is too far ahead, even though the league is still very long."
Interestingly, AC Milan people refuse to admit that they are too far behind Inter Milan. They still regard Juventus as the most powerful contender for the championship and are only willing to talk about the gap between them and Juventus.
Although the boss and the team's ace have lost the courage to catch up, AC Milan Vice Chairman Galliani still refuses to admit defeat, "I don't understand why the league is not even halfway through and we start talking about the slim chance of winning the championship. We still have half a game left."
The season can be caught up.”
Fiorentina, currently ranked third in the league, seems to have no intention of joining this "league championship" discussion. The club's goal is very practical: to enter the Champions League next season. The club is currently considering more transfers in the winter to strengthen the team.
Strength, if the signings are successful, and without the pressure of European competition, Fiorentina believes that they should be a strong contender for the league runner-up.
