The Milan Derby between Inter and Milan is one of the most prestigious matches in world football. In the first derby of the 24/25 season, Milan defeated Inter 2-1 thanks to goals by Christian Pulisic and Mattia Gabbia. However, there are as many as nine points difference between these teams in the Italian league table – Inter is in third place with 28 points, while Milan has 19 points, which gives it seventh place, just outside the European cups.
Inter and Milan are also competing in the Champions League this season. Inter has 10 points after four matches and is in fifth place, which gives them direct promotion to the knockout phase of the Champions League, without having to play in the play-offs for the 1/8 finals. Milan, in turn, has six points, and in the fourth round it won 3-1 against Real Madrid at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
A scandal broke out in Italy in which an Inter or Milan player is said to be involved. And this could spell huge trouble for one of these teams.
A big scandal in Italy? The footballer allegedly beat up a woman. “You don't fit into the system”
Italian journalist Massimo Giletti revealed in the program “Lo stato delle cose” on Rai 3 that the editorial office received a recording in which an Inter or Milan player beat a girl. We write “Inter or Milan” because Giletti is talking about a “player from the Milan team”. – They sent us the video to the editorial office. Everything is visible and cannot be questioned. He is a very famous football player, he was under the influence of alcohol – said Giletti. The name of the perpetrator was not mentioned during the program, which means that Internet users on social media are trying to guess who it is.
– We have adopted a common position not to show you this video because we need to conduct some investigation. However, we will continue to act, because if you run on the pitch with a red symbol on your face and then do such things, it means that you do not fit into this system – added Giletti, who thus explained why the public does not yet know the name of the perpetrator .
We read in the Italian media that a “famous footballer” allegedly physically attacked a girl in a private area at a famous venue in Milan. This incident took place in January 2024. After the attack, the woman fell to the ground, and when she was picked up, the footballer allegedly hit her again. “Giletti revealed that he had a recording that could get an Inter or Milan player into serious trouble,” writes the daily “Il Messaggero”.
The red lipstick on the cheeks of Serie A players is part of a campaign supported by the United Nations to combat violence against women. This is the #UnRossoAllaViolenza (Red Card for Violence) campaign. It aims to encourage women not to be afraid to talk about the domestic violence they experience. In November 2020, we wrote that “in Italy and around the world, every third woman falls victim to violence, and 40 percent of those who experienced it do not talk about it with anyone”.
