Kjaer and Kalulu, the yellow for the change in the Inter-Milan derby: what happened – Corriere.it

Has anyone thought back to the derby in August 2009 when Seedorfcalled into question to take over from the bench in place of Gattuso, booked and in pain, was surprised on the sideline without boots (according to legend he was in slippers, according to the person concerned in sneakers). The delay in preparing cost Milan the numerical inferiority given that in the meantime Rino received another yellow card for having knocked down Sneijder. According to historical courses and appeals, yesterday, in the second half of the derby-psychodrama for Milan fans, a similar episode took place. Malick Thiaw falls to the ground and Stefano Pioli think about Simon Kjaer as its natural substitute. Similar tactical and physical characteristics, as well as greater leadership guaranteed by the Danish expert. But something goes wrong.

According to the coach, the blond takes too long to change and get ready to be used. So amid tensions and screams Pioli chooses to send Kalulu onto the field. The Sky images show the eloquent gestures of Pioli’s deputy, Giacomo Murelli, who invite Kjaer to hurry up and the expression that a whole program of the blond when he realizes that to punish him Pioli has chosen to focus on his partner. Simon probably didn’t like the bench. In March, after Denmark’s retirement, he thundered about his situation in Milan: I’m tired of not playing. The exclusion from the most heartfelt and important match of the year certainly didn’t please him.
