Zlatan shows no signs of slowing down as he fired his first goal since his self-isolation of the coronavirus from a spot-kick, Handanovic denied his first attempt but he followed it with a low fastball in to give Milan 1-0 over Inter Milan.

The second goal came from Leao's assist as he sent a cross in for the Swedish international and tucked it home in style.

Inter Milan responded through Lukaku after Kolarov-Perisic linked up to send a low ball in for Lukaku to tap in.

The rest of the game was just each team trying to equalize or extend the lead.
