ALEXANDRE Pato scored a brace to hand AC Milan a 3-0 win over cross-city rivals Inter in a potentially title-deciding derby yesterday.
Pato opened the scoring in the first minute with a tap-in before Cristian Chivu blew off his sides' chances of a comeback on 53 minutes when he was sent off for tripping Milan's goalscorer.
Pato wrapped the win on 62 minutes when he headed a pass from Ignazio Abate. Substitute Antonio Cassano completed the rout on 89 minutes when he converted a penalty he won himself before receiving his marching orders in the 92 minute for a second-yellow card.
Inter's best chance came in the 38th minute when Wesley Sneijder delivered an inviting corner which was met by the head of Thiago Motta on the six-yard line. It looked as if an equalizer was inevitable only for Abbiati to somehow claw the ball to safety off the line, a wonderful save celebrated by the keeper as if he had just scored the winning goal.
The result sees Milan increase their lead over Inter at the summit of Serie A to five points with only seven games to go.
