Milan secured the second derby of the tournament by defeating Inter 1-0 in the match played today at the San Siro stadium, for the 28th round of Serie A. According to the Argentine News Agency, the only goal of the game came in the 34th minute, through Ecuadorian full-back Pervis Estupiñán. With the win, the home team maintains its hopes of winning the league title by being second with 60 points, while Inter remains the current leader with 67 units, although it lost both derbies of the season and was left without a streak of seven consecutive wins in local football. Additionally, Roma suffered a surprising defeat against Genoa 2-1, although it remains in the UEFA Champions League qualifying zone, Bologna fell 2-1 against Hellas Verona in the relegation zone, Fiorentina drew 0-0 with Parma and managed to get out of the red zone, and Lecce defeated Cremonese 2-1 in another key match for relegation. The first arrival of the match was by the home team, at two minutes, with a recovery in attack that ended in a low and crossed left-footed shot from midfielder Luka Modric, which went very close to the post. The red and black team opened the scoring in the 34th minute of the first half, with a good through pass from midfield to the left of midfielder Youssouf Fofana for full-back Pervis Estupiñán, who entered the area and shook the net with a high and very powerful left-footed shot. Inter did not have an arrival until the second minute, when a pass in a cut found midfielder Piotr Zielinski on the right side, whose first-time shot went to the near post but did not surprise goalkeeper Mike Maignan, who was able to contain it. Six minutes later, midfielder Henrik Mkhitaryan brought down a cross from the right for the shot of full-back Federico Dimarco from the penalty spot, although the defender did not define well and his shot went high.
