CALHANOGLU, KEY ONCE AGAIN

Hakan Calhanoglu continues to be a fundamental part of Simone Inzaghi's set-up. The Turkish midfielder scored his 10th goal of the season in all competitions, reaching double figures in the Top-5 European leagues for the third time in his career.

Moreover, this was Calhanoglu's third goal against AC Milan as a former player: the first from active play after two scored from the spot.

BERENBRUCH, A BIG STEP

It was a special night for Thomas Berenbruch who made his second appearance for the Nerazzurri in the game against AC Milan. The midfielder, born in 2005, after making his senior debut in March in the Champions League against Feyenoord, had the chance for an unforgettable experience. Coming on in the 90th minute for Correa, Berenbruch took to the San Siro pitch in a derby, something that for an Inter fan represents an even greater step in his growth and a sign of the trust in him from the Nerazzurri staff.
