Massimo Ambrosini, the former Milan midfielder, spoke to Repubblica about Sunday’s derby between Inter and Milan. He said,
"Inter like to build play, they will attack. Milan will be ready to break forward and take the spaces. How did Allegri prepare big matches? He worked on the opponents’ weak points. He was good at reproducing in matches what he tested in training. He gave confidence, pushing away excuses and fear."
Ambrosini, where will the derby be decided?
"I pick the duel between Modric and Çalhanoglu, since Chivu pushes Çalha high on the opposing playmaker. And Inter’s defenders will need to contain Milan’s surges. Prediction? I never get them right. And not only in football, on Sunday I thought Alcaraz in Turin would win in two sets."
The former midfielder also spoke about Milan midfielder Luka Modric:
"It fills the heart of anyone who loves football. Players like him go beyond colours, they are a gift. With Rabiot and Maignan, he is Milan’s charismatic leader. On a technical level, Leao can also make the difference.”
