Milan Triumphs Over Inter in Coppa Italia Clash

AC Milan delivered a masterclass performance against their city rivals Inter, securing a resounding 3-0 victory in the Coppa Italia semi-final. This win marks Milan’s third triumph over Inter this season, extending their unbeaten run in the derby to five matches.

The match remained closely contested in the first half until Luka Jovic broke the deadlock, setting Milan on course for victory. Jovic later completed his brace after the interval, with Tijjani Reijnders adding a third goal late in the game to seal Milan’s progression to the final.

Player Performances

Inter Milan

Inter’s players struggled to make an impact, with most receiving below-average ratings. Yann Bisseck stood out as their best performer, showcasing strong defensive skills despite the team’s overall poor showing. Kristjan Asllani and Matteo Darmian were particularly disappointing, failing to provide the necessary midfield control and defensive stability.

AC Milan

Luka Jovic was the star for Milan, earning the highest rating with his clinical finishing and improved link-up play. The Serbian striker’s brace proved decisive in tilting the match in Milan’s favor. However, Rafael Leão had an unusually quiet game, despite his team’s dominant performance.

Managerial Impact

Inter coach Simone Inzaghi faced criticism for his team’s lackluster performance and inability to respond to Milan’s pressure. In contrast, Milan’s Sergio Conceiçao received praise for maintaining the team’s focus and securing another potential trophy amidst a turbulent season.

This victory not only secures Milan’s place in the Coppa Italia final but also continues their impressive run against Inter, further solidifying their dominance in recent Milan derbies.
