Milan x Internazionale - Highlights, Summary and Match Report
In a fiercely contested Milan derby, AC Milan clinched a narrow 1-0 victory over their city rivals Internazionale at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. The match, which took place on the evening of March 8, 2026, was a crucial fixture in the 28th round of the Serie A 2025/26 season. The only goal of the game came midway through the first half, tipping the balance in Milan's favour.
The decisive moment arrived in the 35th minute when Pervis Estupiñán broke the deadlock. The Ecuadorian defender scored with a precise left-footed shot from the left side of the penalty area, sending the ball into the top left corner of the net. This crucial goal, assisted by Youssouf Fofana, marked Estupiñán's first goal in the competition, coming in his 15th appearance of the season.
Despite enjoying less possession, Milan managed to hold onto their lead, with Inter unable to capitalise on their dominance in ball control and corner count. Inter had 63% of the possession and won 6 corners compared to Milan's solitary corner, yet both teams managed only 2 shots on target each. The expected goals metric also reflected a closely matched contest, with Inter slightly ahead at 1.12 compared to Milan's 0.84.
This victory is significant for Milan as it not only provides crucial points in the league but also boosts morale by securing bragging rights in one of football's most historic derbies. As the Serie A campaign continues, both teams will be looking to build on their performances, with Milan especially keen to maintain their defensive solidity and clinical edge in front of goal.
