First the overtaking with the victory of Bentegodi, then the counterattack in the last corner thanks to the goring of Theo Hernández that knocked out Lazio: Milan and Inter They continue their career at the top of the standings and for the first time since the beginning of the year they give a decisive break in terms of points, also thanks to the sensational defeat of you with Fiorentina and the draws for Napoli and Atalanta. After years of domination by Juventus, it is derby scudetto among the Milan teams, who will face Pirlo’s team after the holidays.
And the so-called ‘big games’ have been the strong point of the team so far Pioli, which between one record and another (the game against the Biancocelesti was the fifteenth consecutive game with at least two goals scored) already accumulates 13 points in the five games against Inter, Naples, Rome, Sassuolo and Lazio. In addition, after the defeat of the Old Lady, AC Milan remains the only undefeated team in the Top-5 of the 2020/21 European championships and will have a few days off to try to recover the many injured players (Ibra and Kjaer above all) maintained by the technician.
Meanwhile, Pioli enjoys the primacy and also the “return” of Before Rebic, that he finally broke free in the end zone (he hadn’t scored since July) and offered a performance at the same level as at the beginning of the year, rebuilding that chain of left-handers with Theo Hernández who had done so well last season. However, the Croatian is not the only happy note for the Rossoneri manager, who has discovered a very reliable Kalulu in the center of defense and continues to monitor Tonali’s growth. Young boys, perhaps inexperienced, but full of enthusiasm like the entire Rossoneri environment, which is at the top of the ranking with +10 over Juventus and does not want to stop dreaming.
How Inter Milan does not want to stop running Antonio Conte, which perhaps does not fall in love with the quality of the game but in Verona he scored the seventh consecutive victory in the League and has finally found that solidity that seemed a bit lost at the beginning of the season. From behind very solid (in Bentegodi they did not risk almost anything and the goal is an injury to Handanovic), but with an offensive department, led by the indispensable Lukakuprolific as ever: in fact, since 1960/61 Inter had not scored at least 34 goals in the first 14 Serie A games of the season
Not only are there many goals, but almost all are scored in the second half (23, a European record), a sign that the physical condition of the Nerazzurri is optimal and that the depth of the squad is a great advantage for the coach , which with the five changes can change the face of your team without losing quality, muscles or centimeters. Also, in January, the club will likely step in with some small adjustments to the market to hone the squad according to Conte’s needs and aim straight for the flag. The post-break schedule can immediately give us the overtaking at the top before the double challenge against Roma and Juventus, which could decide a lot on the Nerazzurri championship. If Inter were to beat the Bianconeri and fly to +10/12, it would be very difficult for Pirlo’s team to recover, which unlike the Nerazzurri will also participate in Europe from February.
