"Estupiñán fired into the top corner from inside the box after a lovely through ball by Youssouf Fofana to give Milan the lead on the night. That would be the only goal in the match, as the Rossoneri cut the gap to seven points."
"Inter had more possession, Expected Goals, big chances, total shots and corners, but failed to turn any of it into a goal. It is a familiar story for an Allegri team in a big game: bend don't break at the back, and take a moment at the other end."
"The Rossoneri have won both Serie A derbies this season for the first time since 2010/11, both under Massimiliano Allegri. They have won three in a row against Inter (including the Coppa Italia) for the first time since November 2010-August 2011."
AC Milan won the derby against Inter with a first-half goal from Pervis Estupiñán, who finished a through ball from Youssouf Fofana into the top corner. Despite Inter dominating possession, expected goals, chances, and shots, they failed to convert any opportunities. Milan's defensive approach proved effective in securing the victory. This marks Milan's first league double over Inter since 2010/11 under Massimiliano Allegri. The Rossoneri have now won three consecutive matches against Inter across all competitions and remain unbeaten in seven consecutive derbies. Estupiñán scored his first Serie A goal and became the first Ecuadorian to score in a Milan-Inter derby.
