Derbies within the derby. Yes, because Inter-Milan is not only Gonzalo Higuain versus Mauro Icardi. There are many interesting confrontations that will take stage tonight.
As Il Corriere dello Sport points out, the one on one’s of tonight’s main event are really many and all very fascinating. Starting from the goalkeepers, different for age and characteristics. But also in defense, in midfield and clearly in attack, for the first minute starters as well as for the ones that will contribute from the bench. Clearly the strikers are the center of attention and it is inevitable. But victory can also pass from the other challenges that we now analyze individually.
On one hand, the experience of Samir Handanovic, on the other the youth and the unruliness of Gianluigi Donnarumma. The Interista keeper is at the height of his footballing maturity, while the young Rossoneri is facing a very delicate period for his growth. Gigio concedes goals on a regular basis, 16 in the last 13 games. Pepe Reina behind him is always on alert but Gennaro Gattuso and Milan are betting a lot on Donnarumma.
Milan Skriniar and Alessio Romagnoli are only 23 years old but they are already the certainties of the two Milanese clubs. The Red and Black player this year is also the captain. Alessio has grown exponentially with Rino on the bench and is a pillar of the team. Like the Nerazzurri player who this year is joined by two experts such as Stefan de Vrij and Miranda.
Ivan Perisic vs Hakan Calhanoglu is another very interesting challenge. Both are not living a particularly bright period and tonight they have the opportunity to raise their heads. Gattuso explained that the Turkey international is going through a very delicate family moment. The club, the staff and the team are close to him, aware that his feet may gift the Rossoneri many victories this season.
But eye to another super challenge, that between Radja Nainggolan and Jesus Suso: the dynamism of the Interista against the finesse of the Rossonero. The most dangerous actions of the two teams always start from them two, even though in different ways. The Spaniard, unlike the Belgian, has also won a place in the national team recently and will soon become a father. A magical period for the 24 year old wizard.
And now room for surprises, probably with the game in progress. Higuaín and Icardi will be the central protagonists of tonight but Patrick Cutrone and Lautaro Martinez want to have their say. Both will probably start from the bench, except for sensational surprises. The two are capable to change the outcome of the match, as they have shown recently. Cutrone has recently recovered from an ankle injury but has never lost the desire and determination. It was he who decided the cup derby and started Gattuso’s era as coach of AC Milan. We hope he can be repeated himself tonight.
