Champions League Final | Inter Milan - Italian Media

Not necessarily "official press", but one of the most popular Italian football social media pages among young fans has made an "Attack on Titan" (don't know if you're all familiar with it) comparison for the occasion

I simply don’t understand this. Some in Madrid say their derby is El Classico and not against Atleti. Some rags say their true derby is against the dippers, though not many did last week.
Your derby is against your closest neighbours.
Maybe for people from Milan it is different?

Yes, Uffa is right. For AC Milan fans the only real derby is against us (“Derby della Madonnina”). Also because Inter was founded following a split from FC Milan (the old name of AC Milan).

But also for Inter fans, aside those living in Milan, or in Lombardy or elsewhere, derby against Milan is anyway a really important match regardless of positions of the two teams in the championship table. In my opinion, it isn't as at the same level of animosity as the derby in my city, between Roma and Lazio. For their fans “Derby Capitolino” (Derby of the Capital city) is almost the only important match of the entire season, because there's a deep hate that goes beyond the limits and I'm not speaking about behaviour of fringe movements. It varies from simple odd behaviours (some "Romanisti" don't want neither to talk with a "Laziale" and vice-versa, provoking them as inferior human beings) to violence and crimes, above all in the decade where in Italy there was terroristic political activity, in the '70s. Luckily, later youth people understood football is only a sport. In both cases, for fans, winning a Derby is a way to bragging around and mocking the rivals 'till a new Derby is played, but this happens everywhere.

In these very last years derby between Inter and Milan has regained importance it didn't had after 2010, because both Inter and Milan were "killed" by FFP: Massimo Moratti, the Inter's president of the Treble, had no more money to spend and Silvio Berlusconi fell in hard times, politically and with his health, so they both left gradually.

Dipper is Liverpool? What's the origin of the term?

Olá! Yeah this season I haven't had many reasons to come and read/write on here, and it's not been an easy one in general for us Juve fans.

Probably Lautaro (if he's on his game like he's been recently) and Barella (despite him usually spending at least half of the game complaining to the ref or his teammates.) Çalhanoglu can also have a good strike from distance but it's not as common.

If you (Citizens fans) watch the first 10 minutes of Inter-Atalanta played few weeks ago (full match is uploaded online on some sites), you will find summarized all Uffa wrote. Apart Barella complaining, that is anyway true haha. About Lautaro there won't be shots, but an example of help given by him in pressing.

OT: today GDS, Corriere dello Sport, an even Tuttosport (!!) have great covers ))
