Juventus V Inter- Derby D'Italia goes to Inter

This was the most talked about game in Italy, and it didn't let us down. Inter put an end to Juventus' winning streak and also ended one of their own taboos. Talk before the game were about how Diego Milito had never scored against Juve in an Inter shirt, well, he put that to rest when he scored 2 in the second half, one from the penalty spot and another after some uncharactoristic sloppy defending by the home side.
It had looked as though it was business as usual from Juve when Arturo Vidal scored the opener within 20 seconds of the whistle. Juve were playing their fast paced game and looked full of confidence and even had a couple of good chance to double it. Claudio Marchisio had 3 shot but only 2 were on goal and bot were straight at the keeper. But 12 minutes later Inter had thought they got the equaliser but Palcio was deemed to be offside, this would have been the main talking point had the game ended with a win for the home side. Stephen Litchsteiner was a little too up for this game and got himself a yellow card for some dangerous tackles, but he was subbed in the 38th minute as there was growing fear that he might get himself sent off and put Juve in a difficult position.
The Old Lady was growing more anxious and was pushing harder to secure a comfortable win. That inevitably meant that someone was going to make a mistake and we didn't have to wait long, in the 59th minute Marchisio tugged at Milito just before he got on the end of a wonderfully worked free kick. And instead of Milito almost scoring, he was sure to score from the penalty spot- and he did.
Juve tried everything to get back on level term but Sebastian Giovinco wasn't having the best of nights as the game was far too physical for him and Nickolas Bendtner didn't do much better, he often looked slow and clumsy on the ball.

Inter won by 3 goals and Juve suffered their first defeat in 49 games and there first ever in their new stadium. This result has meant that only 1 point separates these two. However it is my hope that this loss has given Juve some much needed humility as they came into this game almost expecting to win. Having lost this game may have also released them from the pressure that comes from being undefeated for so long. The Bianconeri's response to this loss will show whether or not they truly deserve to be on top. It is a long campaign and anything came happen between now and May.
I'm still proud of the lads in black and white!
