"It's hard to talk about football after what happened today. Something unacceptable has happened again, and you can't ruin a game of this importance. This is a show that we are putting on for the world, we need to change something immediately, without wasting time, as often happens in Italian football. Since the beginning of the year, we've been saying that there is no adequate structure for the league. We cannot continue like this. Decisions like the one made tonight cannot be taken lightly."
"Kalulu was sent off for a second yellow card late in the first half after referee Federico La Penna adjudged that the France international had pulled back Alessandro Bastoni. Kalulu reacted with incredulity as the referee pulled out the yellow then red card and appeared to signal for the decision to be reviewed by the video assistant referee. However, yellow cards, even when they result in a red, cannot be reviewed by VAR."
"Prior to the red card, Juventus had leveled the scores after Andrea Cambiaso canceled out his earlier own goal that had put Inter in front. But Inter regained the lead in the 76th minute when forward Pio Esposito headed in powerfully from Federico Dimarco's left-wing cross. While Manuel Locatelli equalized from a Weston McKennie cross in the 83rd to seemingly secure an unlikely point for Juventus' 10-men, Piotr Zielinski's 90th-minute strike earned Inter victory in the Derby d'Italia."
Pierre Kalulu was sent off for a second yellow card late in the first half after referee Federico La Penna adjudged that he had pulled back Alessandro Bastoni. Kalulu appeared incredulous and signalled for a VAR review, but yellow cards cannot be reviewed. Juventus director Giorgio Chiellini and CEO Damien Comolli angrily confronted La Penna at half-time and criticized the decision as unacceptable and embarrassing, calling for immediate structural change in Italian football. Andrea Cambiaso had equalized after an earlier own goal, Inter regained the lead through Pio Esposito, Manuel Locatelli briefly equalized, and Piotr Zielinski's 90th-minute goal sealed a 3-2 Inter win.
