Martinez had come under fire after scoring just once in his last six league games coming into the match against Pisa, but he hit back at those critics, much to the delight of Chivu. "We know the importance of all our players, especially our captain," Chivu told DAZN Italia. "There might be people outside who doubt him, but we never have. "It is because we know how much he cares and how much he brings to this team."

There is a lot on the line in the first Milan derby of the season, but that in itself is something that should be celebrated. La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) speaks about the essence of tonight's derby with a simple phrase: whoever wins takes the city. Inter can extend their lead to five points over Milan, the Rossoneri can overtake them by a point. But there's much more at stake than the Navigli.
