A huge sigh of relief went through my living room as Milan came out with a comfortable win. Shame on the people who thought the Rosoneri could only perform when they have Ibrahimovic at their disposal, they showed that they had the skill and determination to get past any set back. The last game against Palermo Allegri got his tactics all wrong, but it was evident that he learnt his lesson as Milan came out of this game with a 3-0 victory.
It was a open game, so open that Pato scored within the first 44 seconds. That really should have told you that Milan were out to win, and that they are not going to let the chance of winning the title since 2004 slip through their fingers.Milan were all gun ho and ran Inter ragged, Inter truly didn't know how to respond. Milan had over 50% of possession, but we all know that's not everything, but Milan also had 22 shots with 8 on goal. Which isn't a real surprise when you see all their attacking options in Robinho, Pato and the likes of Boateng and Seedorf, who don't mind taking the odd shot!
Throughout the game you could see Inter's petulant and cheap tricks coming to play, but this is what Inter were reduced to especially when Pato scored the second in the 62nd minute. The final nail in the coffin came in the 90th minute, when substitute Cassano scored from the penalty spot, the funny thing about Antonio was that he was on for a minute before getting sent off!! He got an unnecessary yellow for his celebration- which I still don't understand, if you know you'll get a card for taking your shirt off, why would you? But his second offence was just Cassano being Cassano.
Milan know have a 5 point lead with 7 games left, the title is their to lose now- but I think the sever years without the Scudetto and the fact that Inter have just 1 more title then them will be enough motivation to win it.
