The Calhanoglu deal was certainly one of the best, considering the quality of the players. He was in a peculiar situation at Milan, but he came to Inter to remedy a dire situation: Eriksen's. In 48 hours, we took advantage of the situation. Now we're enjoying having him.
Mike Maignan was pivotal to the latest derby win; he made countless saves, but the biggest was from 12 yards, where he stopped former Rossonero Hakan Calhanoglu. Penalty saves are rare, but this was not a case of getting lucky. Fate not fortune Gazzetta dello Sport writes that the save was not left to chance, and he did three things to prevent the Turkish midfielder from scoring. As Calhanoglu prepared, Maignan changed his own tactics, protesting the penalty a little, rather than what he had done in the past. Calm, present and ready to face what the opposition had to give to him. Different from trying to put him off, placing the pressure on the taker.
