Last night's US Cup witnessed a Miami derby that exuded a strong AC Milan flavor.
The clash featured Miami FC, helmed by President Riccardo Silva who also holds a stake in AC Milan thanks to his investment in RedBird Capital Partners, and Inter Miami, co-owned by David Beckham, a former rossonero.
In an intense encounter, Beckham's Inter Miami emerged victorious, securing a 7-5 penalty shoot-out win following a riveting 2-2 draw.
The intriguing link between Miami FC and AC Milan runs deeper as Paolo Maldini co-founded Miami FC with Silva in 2015, Sandro Nesta, who coached in 2016 and 2017, and Luca Antonelli who played in 2021 and 2022.
