AC Milan snags the bragging rights in a thrilling Derby della Madonnina with a last-minute goal!

In yet another thrilling installment of the Derby della Madonnina, AC Milan triumphed over their city rivals Inter Milan with a hard-fought 2-1 victory at the San Siro. The match kicked off with a bang as American star Christian Pulisic showcased his talents with a stunning solo goal only minutes into the game. His opener set the tone, dazzling fans and leaving Inter's defense scrambling. AC Milan was poised to steal the spotlight from the Nerazzurri, who had been on a hot streak before this encounter.

Inter Milan managed to respond with Federico Dimarco scoring the equalizer, temporarily silencing AC Milan's jubilant fans. However, the Rossoneri were not to be denied their moment. As the match drew to a close, it was Matteo Gabbia who emerged as the unexpected hero. With an extraordinary bullet header in the 89th minute from a set piece, Gabbia clinched the victory for Milan and sparked scenes of jubilation among the red and black-clad supporters. For Gabbia, it was not just a goal; it was a statement of intent, ensuring AC Milan grabbed the bragging rights and halted Inter's six-match derby winning streak.

After the match, AC Milan's coach Paulo Fonseca was elated, praising his team's determination and hard work. “I can't remember a performance where we pushed Inter harder than we did today,” he remarked, highlighting the resilience and spirit his squad displayed on the pitch. Meanwhile, Inter captain Lautaro Martinez addressed the media, expressing disappointment and noting that his squad “didn't play like themselves,” reflecting the pressure of facing such fierce rivals.

As fans from both sides revel in the exhilarating moments of the derby, one can’t ignore the legacy these two clubs have built in Italian football. Did you know that AC Milan and Inter Milan have one of the fiercest rivalries not just in Italy but across Europe? The Derby della Madonnina has been played over 230 times, creating unforgettable moments in football history. Moreover, with Pulisic's early stunner, he joins elite company as one of the few Americans to make such an impact in one of the world's most renowned leagues, reminiscent of legends like Clint Dempsey!

In terms of statistics, this victory marks AC Milan's first derby win since 2022, allowing them to snatch momentum in the Serie A race. Fans are keen to see if this triumph can reinvigorate Milan's quest for another league title, as they look to build on this victory and continue their rise in Italian football glory. One thing is for sure: the Rossoneri are back, and they mean business!
