A dry and clear 3-0, a night of absolute protagonists. Milan may have dreamed of such an evening but dared not go any further, not least because the distances in the standings spoke for themselves. Inter first on equal points with Napoli, fresh from the defeat against Bologna but eager for immediate redemption.
Milan, on the other hand, ninth in the standings, fresh from the defeat against Atalanta and with qualification for the European cups more than a mirage. In short, in spite of the 1-1 draw in the first leg, everything suggested how it could be a glorious evening for Inter, which, moreover, in the season had always reacted to every defeat with a victory.
And instead Milan knocked out Inter Milan on a magical night and clinched qualification to the final. Bologna or Empoli (but the Felsinei in the first leg won decisively) the opponent of the Rossoneri, who are now aiming to win their second trophy of the season after the Italian Super Cup and qualification for the Europa League through the national event itself.
Conceiçao non sbaglia una mossa: Jovic superstar
Conceiçao guessed them all and the new form worked big time against Inter. And Milan will end the season undefeated in the Derbies: between the league, Italian Super Cup and Coppa Italia no losses for a clear turnaround from what happened last year with Pioli on the bench.

Great protagonist of last night was undoubtedly Luka Jovic. A real insight by Sergio Conceiçao who dusted him off from mothballs when he seemed on the sidelines. The Serbian bomber was a separatist, outgoing and not useful to the Rossoneri cause despite renewing his contract last summer. The turnaround from Fonseca to Conceiçao with the striker even decisive.
Yesterday he treated himself to a magical night, perhaps the most important of his career: a brace that knocked out Inter at the tail end of a match of great substance, for an all-around performance. Lots of balls cleaned up and played with teammates, fight in every action, and plays of great depth.
In the league Jovic has played less than 200′ total, only one match as a starter then always subbing in from the bench. He has so far accumulated 12 appearances with two goals in Serie A and as many in the Coppa Italia for an average/goal of 107′, the best of all Milan’s strikers. In this final season he is proving to be the extra weapon for Milan, which wants to end the season with its head held high.
Milan, scatta l’operazione rinnovo: la decisione della dirigenza
In short, Luka Jovic is currently Milan’s extra man: credit to Conceiçao who wanted to bet on him, showing great courage and a touch of recklessness. On the other hand, Ibrahimovic last January bought Santiago Gimenez from Feyenoord for a good 35 million euros, not to mention how Abraham is also in the squad.

And instead the man of the Derby was Luka Jovic, the bet won by the Lusitanian coach. The center forward is now a rediscovered player for Milan who can potentially have his say in this season finale. And it can definitely change the striker’s future as well. The Rossoneri club can exercise the one-year option to renew but it will be up to the new sporting director and the coach who will sit on the bench to make the final decision.
What is certain is that the time frame is tight considering how the option will expire the second week of July but Jovic now has a great chance of extending his adventure at Milan.
