AC Milan Snatches Late Derby Victory Over Inter with Gabbia's Header

Posted : 23 September 2024

Matteo Gabbia secured a thrilling late victory for AC Milan in the derby against Inter Milan on Sunday, scoring a powerful header in the 89th minute to clinch a 2-1 win. This victory not only provided Milan with local bragging rights but also marked a significant turnaround in their season after a challenging start. In another match, AS Roma dominated Udinese with a convincing 3-0 win, amidst protests following the unexpected sacking of Daniele De Rossi.

 

Gabbia's decisive moment came from a well-placed free-kick by Tijjani Reijnders, allowing the defender to rise above the defenders and score a goal that lifted Milan out of their early-season slump. The match had seen a back-and-forth dynamic, with Christian Pulisic opening the scoring for Milan with a brilliant solo effort in the 10th minute, only for Federico Dimarco to equalize for Inter just before the half-hour mark.

 

This win was particularly significant for Milan as it ended Inter's streak of six consecutive derby victories and prevented them from claiming the top spot in Serie A, which is currently held by surprise leaders Torino. The triumph provided a much-needed boost for Milan and their new coach, Paulo Fonseca, who faced mounting pressure after recent performances, including a disappointing loss to Liverpool.

 

Milan's performance was characterized by resilience and determination, especially in the second half, where they created several opportunities to score. Despite some heroic saves from Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer, including stops against Rafael Leao and Reijnders, Gabbia's late goal ignited a celebration among Milan fans, who could finally revel in a dramatic derby win and put an end to their recent frustrations.
