Rossoneri Round-Up for Sept 22: Milan Lose 2-0 In Giampaolo's Debut Derby

Milan got wrecked in the derby last night. Marco Giampaolo's stubbornness left Milan exposed and lacking creativity. Romelu Lukaku and Marcelo Brozovic found the back of the net as Milan's players put in an underwhelming shift.

Giampaolo controversial line-up and his game plan were blown away by Inter's solid mentality and their persistence. Andrea Conti, Ricardo Rodriguez and Lucas Biglia were the defensive holes and Inter took their chances well. Much more is needed from the coach and the players.
