Zlatan Ibrahimovic, despite scoring a goal against Inter, did not have a good shift as the referee Paolo Valeri deemed his foul on Inter's Kolarov deserving of a second yellow card. The player, prior to that, also had a verbal clash with Romelu Lukaku, his former teammate at Manchester United.
During the derby match, Ibrahimovic managed to reach the 499th goal of his career. But, the Swede champion is hungry and wants more. He is looking to put aside everything that is going around him from media talk to possible sanctions and just focus on one goal: help the team achieve the victory and score his 500th goal against Bologna. This was reported by Gazzetta dello Sport.
The game is important for not only Zlatan Ibrahimovic but also for the whole squad and the coach as he looks to put the adequate formation despite the absences. It should also be a game where Chelsea's loanee Fikayo Tomori gets his first starting spot with the Rossoneri and taste of the Serie A league football to replace the injured Simon Kjaer.
