The Swedish pole vault star Armand Duplantis was on site in the Italian fashion city Milan and got to see Milan get a cannon start on the derby.

Already in the 10th minute, Christian Pulisic set 1–0 behind Inter's goalkeeper Yann Sommer.

Then it was a tough and long wait for the next Milan goal.

Inter, who earlier in the week played a draw away against Manchester City in the Champions League, grew into the match and equalized through Federico Dimarco in the 27th minute.

But it was still Milan who got to celebrate in the end.

Matteo Gabbia met Tijani Reijnders' free kick with his head and scored the winning goal at San Siro in the 89th minute.

Milan, who had a tough start to the league season, now have two straight three-pointers.
