Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the star of the derby that AC Milan won against Inter Milan. And the Swedish footballer responded to Lukaku's challenge on social networks.
Months ago, the Belgian footballer proclaimed himself "king of Milan". Now, after winning the derby at Giuseppe Meazza, the Swede said: "Milan has never had a king, they have a God", in reference to himself.

But the Milan striker left yet more pearls in statements to 'Sky Sport'. He is aware of the great level he has reached at 39 years old but he regretted not having done it earlier.
"I feel more complete, I have more experience. When you are young you are still growing. You go through a time when you are learning things, playing, you have moments and situations that repeat themselves. Now I feel complete. If I had the condition I had when I was 20-30 years old, nobody would stop me. But anyway, even now I am not stopped," Ibrahimovic said.
Despite being the leader of the Serie A, Ibra did not want to celebrate prematurely. "Yes, there is a chance to win the 'Scudetto'. Whoever believes in it can do everything. We are working towards that, then let's see what happens. It's still far way," he explained.
Ibra arrived at the match after overcoming COVID-19, of which he said he only lost "a little bit of taste". "I rub myself every three days to see the result, I said 'I can skip the games I've missed but not the derby, I play the derby even if the results are not ready, nobody stops me," said Ibra.
