Milan have been shaking a lot in the last week. The defeat of Atalanta clearly made the spirits worse, a defeat in the derby never goes unnoticed. Especially when they try to declare the clash between Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Romelu Lukaku racist. More injuries were added: the leader of the center of defense Kier, the offensive midfielder Diaz. On the other hand, Stefano Pioli urged to look only forward. And the opponent approached. Against teams below the Top 8 in the first round, the Rossoneri lost just four points. Personally, Bologna have been beaten nine times in their last ten games. Already ten at 11.
Without Diaz and Chalhanoglu, all the forwards had to be thrown into battle. This is how the team looked. No midfield, no central axis. Very sharp in the opponent’s penalty area and on the left flank, but not in the best way in the construction of the game, in the fight for dominance. He threw forward, played with the counterattacks. But it also missed the attacks. Hernandez hit the frame from the side. Skorupski brilliantly rescued Zlatan twice in seconds. He took both his penalty and Leau’s kick from a distance. After the first goal, “Bolonia” had the initiative, Donnarumma saved with the same brilliance in the duels with Sansone and Nico Domínguez.
In favor of the league leader, his trump card tipped the balance. He already has 14 penalties won. At least twice as many as the others. His Ibra, signaled by Dykes’ foul on Leau, got greased again, but Rebich immediately ran to the penalty area and finished. And Cassie wrote hers again. Sumaro assigned him to a two-handed game under pressure from Zlatan. After 2-0, Milan kept the game under control. He fell asleep alone at the end, when Skov-Olsen pushed his way through and leaned back a bit towards Paulie, and Donnarumma parried the blow to the head of Soriano and went wrong twice on interceptions. Was lucky.
Milan have set a new club record by scoring in their 20th straight away game. In the 16th in a row, he scored at least two goals. He hasn’t been impressive in a long time, but he’s still first in the league.

Juventus accelerated the pace and the form. For the Genoa match, he had seven wins in the last eight matches. In addition, it was the defeat of “Inter” that changed him, clearly improved the game. After him, three victories were obtained in all tournaments with a total score of 8: 0. And Andrea Pirlo already calls to forget that failure and look only forward. Sampdoria could have brought it back. They have won three of the last four, including against Inter. In the fall, Atalanta and Lazio won. Pirlo stated that it is always difficult against Claudio Ranieri’s teams. However, the safety margin of “Juve” is now considerable.
There are many complaints about the game. In the first half, he owned the ball almost 60 percent of the time, but created very little. A beautiful combination of Cristiano Ronaldo, Morata (center right) and Chiesa. KP7 hit from afar, thrown by Audero under the crossbar. The Portuguese also missed the goalkeeper, but missed from an acute angle. And twice he was late with a kick in the center of the penalty area. Also, there were almost no shots on goal. At the same time, the champion combined very beautifully, quickly, confidently, skillfully pressing on the slender left flank of the opponent. And in defense, he did not allow him to do anything.
In the second half, under an increasing downpour, Turin lost some control over the game. In the opening, Chiellini had to desperately block Quagliarella at a tackle on Szczesna’s gate, Wojciech, to ward off a powerful blow from Fabio in another episode. But gradually everything calmed down, the game for the most part moved to the middle of the field of the Genoese and was interrupted too often. Which, of course, suited the team leading the score. He was clearly thinking of another Italian Derby, at the Cup on Tuesday. And he managed to defend himself clearly and maintain his strength. As a result, Ronaldo also threw Cuadrado and Ramsey into the gap.
Like Milan, it is not the best game, but it is a solid victory. On the team that Inter and Atalanta lost. Yes, and another “dry” match. At this stage, with this schedule, it’s a decent achievement.

Milan. “Giuseppe Meazza”
“Inter” – “Benevento” 4: 0
Goals: Improta 7 (own goal), Lautaro Martines 57, Lukaku 67, 79

Warnings: Caldirola 28, Depaoli 32
Inter worked in the style of Juventus. He won the first half on shots on goal with a score of 5: 0 with 66 percent of ball possession. That is, he created little, but did not allow his opponent anything. The goal came thanks to Eriksen’s free-kick in the opening. Closer to the end of the half, the Dane knocked Hakimi out of the game, but badly hit his head at point-blank range. Lautaro and Barella Martínez finished the counterattack with a bad shot from the center of the area. In general, “Inter” played many beautiful counterattacks, combinations, re-passes, stumbling on the last pass. And often the game just stopped.
In the middle of the half, the “snakes” could have paid for the game by half, when at the entrance of the penalty area Ranokkia pushed Lapadula from the back. The “witches” were enraged for a long time due to the lack of reaction from referee Fabrizio Pasqua. He was definitely wrong. But the GAR did not intervene correctly. Since the foul started outside the penalty area, that is, it did not require a penalty. And the forward played with his hand. And at the beginning of the second half, “Inter” also surpassed the “Juventus” plan. He pressed. Eriksen’s blow from a distance bounced off the crossbar. He sent the rebound Lautaro to the door. Like Lukaku, a gift from Montipo.
In the 78th minute, Romelu, absolutely free, received a pass from Alexis Sánchez 13 meters from the goal and made the score 4: 0. And “Benevento” was left without goals on goal.
After the 0-0 in Udine and in general only one victory in four league games, Antonio Conte demanded more cruelty in the rival goal, a higher percentage of execution. Their demands were heard today. Despite the fact that the coach himself was not on the bench due to disqualification. His team has a bad time outside, outside Milan they have not won three league games in a row. But at home I won seven in a row. For the first time in three years. He will not let Milan go. The “Benevento” also suffer a fourth defeat in the last six matches and remain twelfth. It is time for you to wake up.
