Antonio Cassano is deeply disappointed by the last Derby della Madonnina, AC Milan – Inter 1-0. Convinced that Cristi's team Chivu will win 2-0, the former Italian striker blamed the Rossoneri for the poor quality of the game, but criticized the Romanian coach's approach to a draw on Sunday.
Recognized supporter of Cristi Chivu, but also of Inter, Cassano is back in force, after he missed the prediction of the AC Milan – Inter match, the former international wrongly indicating 2-0 for the Serie A leader.
Antonio criticized Massimiliano Allegri's team, although he admitted that the Rossoneri were better in the Derby della Madonnina: “It was not a good match, we saw an unworthy, ugly, disgusting show, which is to be expected from Milan.
Instead, in the first 35 minutes, Milan did what they have never done all season, trying to press a little higher up the pitch, then for the remaining 60 minutes they reverted to their usual defending. The disappointment was Inter”.

“Milan deserved to win, but Chivu's team will take the title”
Antonio Cassano explained what he didn't like about the game displayed by the Nerazzurri: “It's true that they had an important opportunity, through Mkhitaryan, and two more opportunities in the second half. Inter disappointed me because I had the impression that they entered the field for a 0-0. They played shallow.
And that bothers me, because you're so much better. So you have to scare them, lock them in the box and don't let them out. Then if you lose like in the tour, it's nothing. Milan pressed high in the first half hour, then pulled away. Milan deserved to win”.
Despite the defeat suffered by Inter in the derby, Cassano believes that the fight for the title is over: “Chivu's team will win the championship, nothing has changed!”.
