Inter Embarreasing Milan In The Italian Super Cup, Hakan Calhanoglu: Karma It Comes
JAKARTA - Hakan Calhanoglu became the Inter Milan player who was most happy with his team's victory from AC Milan in the 2022/2023 Italian Super Cup. Calhanoglu even mentioned karma for the opposing team.
Inter Milan won 3-0 from their city rivals in the party which took place at the King Fahd Stadium, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Thursday 19 January early morning WIB. This result not only included La Beneamata as the champion, but also a striking counter form for Milan.
Previously, the Rossoneri humiliated Inter in the race for the 2021/2022 Scudetto title. When most Inter players refused to say this was revenge, Calhanoglu was more open.
"Of course, I always prefer to be silent. But karma comes and they have to respect the 3-0 defeat. I think today we managed to swallow Milan," Calhanoglu was quoted as saying by Football Italia, Thursday, January 19.
Calhanoglu made this statement considering that the celebration of the Milan Scudetto caused controversy. Stefano Pioli's team celebrated it with an insulting song from Inter.
In addition, there is also an insult to Calhanoglu who is considered a traitor for moving from Milan to Inter as a city rival club.
Despite the heat of the atmosphere, Calhanoglu is again focused on his team's achievements. He called this trophy important and did not forget to thank teammates and fans who always provide support.
"This is a very important trophy, especially for me. I thank my teammates and fans, we showed a 3-0 win proving our quality," said the 28-year-old.
Di sisi lain kemenangan di Piala Super Italia disebut-sebut bisa mendongkrak mentalitas para pegawa Nerazzuri dalam pemburuan gelar Liga Italia bersama Napoli dan Milan.
Turkish footballers say their team's chances for the Scudetto are still wide open. Moreover, Inter have proven in recent matches.
"We believed until the end. We did well against Napoli and Milan here. The road is still long and we can do it," he stressed.
