Crying To The Bank – Inter Milan Set New Coppa Italia Gate Receipt Record In Semi-Final Loss To AC Milan | OneFootball

Over 75,000 fans attended tonight’s Coppa Italia semi-final second-leg showdown between arch-rivals Inter and AC Milan at San Siro.

According to FCInterNews, the Derby della Madonnina’s irresistible pull generated a historic profit in gate receipts.

Despite slumping to a dismal 3-0 loss, Inter took home an eye-watering €5.79 million.

However, Simone Inzaghi can hardly be proud of his team’s performance, especially in the second half.

If it’s any consolation, Inter continue to make an off-the-chart profit.

To be specific, a record-breaking night at San Siro saw 75,552 fans pack the stands for the second-leg decider.

Furthermore, the latest Derby della Madonnina edition poured €5.79 million in gate receipts into Inter’s bank accounts.

That’s the highest ever recorded in the competition.

However, goals from Luka Jovic and Tijjani Reijnders tore Inter’s treble dream into pieces.

Now is the time for Inzaghi to rally his troops and prepare well for Sunday’s must-win home league clash against Roma.

Indeed, Inter can’t afford another slip-up amid a fierce Serie A title battle against Napoli.
