Inter and AC Milan played out a dreary 0-0 derby draw on Sunday that
encapsulated their respective disappointing seasons in Serie A.
There was a notable lack of quality in attack for both sides, perhaps
showcasing how the two giants of Italian football have fallen from
grace in recent seasons.
That feeling was particularly evident in a first half that provided
little in terms of goalmouth action, although Milan did see Alex have a
goal ruled out for offside.
Inter, the designated hosts, improved after the break and Rodrigo
Palacio had a goal of his own disallowed, before Roberto Mancini's men
had penalty claims against Luca Antonelli turned away.
Milan's Philippe Mexes had his blushes spared with just under 20
minutes remaining when he turned into his own net, only for a foul off
the ball to curtail Inter's celebrations.
A draw means that Milan stay one place and one point above their rivals in ninth.
