Milan plays well vs big teams..let’s hope that trend continues
i can’t continue to watch this. milan so wasteful. inter is a better team the whole match physically, mentally and tactically. this is frustrating from supporters pov. i can’t imagine how distraught they feel on the bench. it’s their fault for how messy they’ve been playing this game.
