Seven Crowns

Chapter 409: Milan Derby

After the Champions League match with Tottenham Hotspur, Inter Milan returned to the domestic arena to continue their journey in Serie A.

Because the Coppa Italia competition system is that the top eight in Serie A last season will directly enter the top 16, so it will have to go to the second half of next year.

Therefore, Inter Milan currently does not have a Coppa Italia game, only the Champions League and Serie A.

On November 6, Inter Milan played at home against Brescia, a lowly team ranked fifth from the bottom in the standings.

Because of the bitter battle in the last expedition to England, this time Inter Milan continued to rotate and changed many players.

However, facing the underdog Brescia at home, Inter Milan easily defeated their opponents.

In the 17th minute, Lu Wenbin broke Brescia's goal with a direct free kick, and Inter Milan led 1-0.

In the 44th minute before the end of the first half, Lu Wenbin knocked away the close marking of the opponent's two central defenders in another corner kick and jumped high, heading the ball into the goal.

Lu Wenbin scored twice to help Inter Milan enter the intermission with a 2-0 lead over their opponents.

Not long after the start of the second half, in the 49th minute, Brescia scored a goal from their No. 9 striker Caraggiono to get back a point.

Brescia's morale was boosted and they wanted to make persistent efforts to equalize the score, but they were hit by a quick counterattack by Inter Milan in the 55th minute.

Lu Wenbin started a long-distance attack with the ball from the backcourt, attracting almost all Brescia defenders, and then crossed the ball to Eto'o who was following up on the other side.

Eto'o single-handedly hit the goal without interference, and Inter Milan led Brescia 3-1.

Subsequently, Inter Milan, whose average age was too high, began to control the game and save energy, and the offense and defense of both sides slowed down.

However, a few minutes before the end, in the 88th minute, Inter Milan won another free kick, which was directly kicked in by Lu Wenbin.

After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. Inter Milan beat Brescia 4-1 at home and continued to lead the standings.

Competitor Lazio lost 0-2 to Roma in this round of the Rome derby, and was widened by Inter Milan.

Lu Wenbin scored a hat-trick which included his second career free-kick brace,

Another assist, again dominating the game.

The cooperation between Lu Wenbin and his teammates is getting better and better, and the goals are gradually increasing.

Four days later, on November 10, in the 11th round of Serie A, Inter Milan challenged Lecce away.

Lecce is also a bottom-ranked underdog.

However, away games are always a bit more difficult than at home, and Lecce, who desperately wanted to avoid relegation, also played very well at home.

If it weren't for Lu Wenbin's continued steady performance, Inter Milan might not be able to win.

In this game, Lu Wenbin scored twice again, helping Inter Milan beat Lecce 2-1 away, and once again took all three points to lead the standings.

After the first 11 rounds of Serie A, Inter Milan ranked first in the standings, AC Milan ranked second, and Lazio ranked third.

The Milan duo occupy the top two spots in the Serie A standings, making the next round even more gimmick-like.

Because, in the 12th round of Serie A, it was Inter Milan's Milan Derby against AC Milan at home, the battle for the top of Serie A.

The Milan Derby is one of the most prestigious city derbys in world football.

The same city, two world-class giants, a long history, the same club split into two clubs, sharing the same stadium, etc., have created the most prestigious city derby on the planet.

The stadium jointly used by Inter Milan and AC Milan is a five-star stadium belonging to the Milan Municipal Government. It is located in the San Siro district of Milan. The old name is the San Siro Stadium.

Since 1980, the Milan government has named the stadium San Siro, which is the official name of the stadium.

However, in order to express the opposing positions of the rivals, the fans of both sides generally call it Meazza for Inter Milan fans, and San Siro for AC Milan fans.

Some say that Meazza/San Siro is half sea and half fire.

The sea water is the blue Inter Milan, and the flame is the red AC Milan. Water and fire are incompatible.

Every Milan Derby will win the attention of the media and fans all over the world with its hot scenes and exciting games.

The cheers, curses, boos of the fans, as well as the sundries and flames thrown from the stands, all told the popularity of the Milan Derby.

Gunpowder smoke, flames, bayonets, and people turning their backs are indispensable elements in every Milan derby.

There have been more than 200 Milan derbies in history, and AC Milan has a slightly higher winning percentage.

However, 152 of them took place in the derby in the league. Inter Milan has achieved 56 wins, 49 draws and 47 losses, and has a slight advantage, but the advantage is minimal.

It is precisely this comparison of strengths that are almost evenly matched on all fronts that has created the reputation of the Milan Derby.

Otherwise, there are so many derbies in the same city in world football, why is the Milan derby so famous?

It is because the two teams are world-class giants, both are very famous, and their strengths are almost the same, and the results of the battle are basically the same.

It is such a powerful and well-matched intra-city derby and duel that are attractive enough to produce the unique Milan derby in world football.

The strength of the two teams is evenly matched, causing most of the past Milan derby to end with a small victory or a draw.

But last season, Inter Milan was 4-0 away in the league and 2-0 at home, with a total score of 6-0 against AC Milan.

In the Milan derby, which generally ends in a small victory or a draw, such a score is rare.

AC Milan, from the players to the fans, has already held their breath and wants to take revenge.

This Milan Derby is the last game of the 12th round of Serie A. It is not only the focus of all Italy, but also the whole of Europe and the world.

The game time is at night, and Inter Milan is playing at home, so they can get more tickets. For AC Milan's away game, the tickets allocated will be much less.

However, as a club in the same city, there will still be many AC Milan fans who can buy tickets through other ticket windows and ticket points.

Therefore, the away fans of this game will not be as small as the away fans of other games, only a few thousand people.

There are at least 20,000 AC Milan fans in this game.

Due to the adjustment of ticket prices this season, this game also created a new record for Milan Derby ticket revenue, with a game revenue as high as 3.4 million euros.

On the evening of November 15th local time, before the start of the game, the entire Meazza Stadium was completely full. Even Bolt, a track and field superstar, appeared in the stands to cheer for his friend Samuel Eto'o.
