Milan Win the Inter Derby as Moreira and Pulisic Stand Out

Milan made their dominance on the pitch felt from the first minutes of the Derby della Madonnina. Christian Pulisic opened the scoring within the first four minutes, and then, together with Adrien Rabiot, Milan moved two goals ahead of their rival within the first ten minutes. Diego Moreira provided the assist for both goals. The match ended with Milan winning 3 goals to 1 over their rival.

Belgian international Moreira also found the net with a powerful, dipping free kick and was named man of the match. Speaking to Sky Sport Italia, Moreira said, “This is the best match I have played in the Milan shirt. For now.” The player stressed that the team had fought to win the three points and that the season was still at its very beginning.

Kaka was also in the stands. The legendary player, who has been inducted into the Milan Hall of Honour, was moved during the tribute ceremony and greeted the fans. Moreira noted that he took the field wearing number 22, the shirt Kaka wore at the club, and that the former star had given him the shirt, and he expressed his joy at this meaningful moment.

Pulisic drew attention with his experience in the Inter derby. The American player scored four times in this derby, and Milan have won all four derbies he has played in. Pulisic said, “I want to keep scoring in the derby so that we win,” highlighting the importance of this result. However, the star player added that playing well in such big matches is no surprise, and that the real goal is to maintain the same performance in every match.
