Former AC Milan coach anticipates a display of “bravery” from the Rossoneri
Arrigo Sacchi, the esteemed former coach of AC Milan, anticipates a display of “courage” from the Rossoneri in their upcoming derby against Inter Milan later this month. Sacchi shared his insights in an interview with Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, as reported by FCInterNews.
The upcoming clash between Inter and Milan marks the second Serie A derby of the season. Unlike previous seasons with multiple encounters between the rivals, this time, there are only two league meetings. Despite Inter’s 5-1 victory in the first encounter, the outcome of the upcoming derby remains unpredictable, as the form book often gets thrown out in such heated matches.
Inter currently holds the potential to secure the Serie A title with a win against Milan, adding further intensity to the rivalry. However, Milan aims to thwart their rivals’ celebration plans while also vying for the second spot in the league standings.
Sacchi noted the palpable excitement building up to the derby in Milan, with Inter feeling confident about their title chances. He acknowledged the energy surging among Inter’s fans, fueled by the possibility of winning the Scudetto in such a significant match against Milan.
Despite Inter’s confidence, Sacchi highlighted the unwavering support of Milan’s fans, who have secured tickets in large numbers to back Pioli’s team. Their commitment reflects confidence and courage, according to Sacchi, as they prepare to witness one of the pivotal matches of the season.
