In 1899, the Italian club AC Milan was founded. Like most Italian clubs at the time, Milan's management decided not to allow foreign players to join their ranks.

Some of the club's officials opposed this decision and fought to change it, but they failed. As a result, they split from AC Milan and, in 1908, decided to establish a new club, which they named "Internazionale" to signify their openness to players of all nationalities without discrimination.

Thus began the story of the greatest rivalry in the history of football derbies: the Derby della Madonnina, also known as the "Derby of Rage" AC Milan vs. Inter Milan.

Kanu nwankwo 🗣️--- Is he, Ademola lookman the first to miss penalty? You can dêtect the level of bittêrness in the heart of Gasperini through his voice.

Our first step is to ensure he lêaves Atalanta to a better clüb without delay. Ãfricãn Plãyers deserve to be respected and treated with honor.

CÃF will do the needful in reaching FÏFÃ, enough of this mãdness, why the hãtred on our players for God sake we are their strength, remove Ãfricãn Plãyers among them and see the difference....

- Most wins in a single season (32) ✅
- Most points in a single season (100) ✅

All of this was during the Pep Barcelona era!

Lesley Phuti Manyathela (4 September 1981 – 9 August 2003) was a South African professional soccer player who played as a striker for Premier Soccer League club Orlando Pirates and the South African national team.

A prolific goalscorer, Manyathela scored 48 goals in 73 appearances for Orlando Pirates and was the league's top goalscorer in 2003. Later that year, he was involved in a car accident which resulted in his death, aged 21. Following his death, the PSL award for the top goalscorer was renamed the Lesley Manyathela Golden Boot in his honour and the national team temporarily retired the number 19 jersey which he had previously worn.

Having represented Chelamoya and Dynamos at youth level, Manyathela joined Orlando Pirates with whom he made his senior debut in September 2000, at the age of 19. During the 2001–02 PSL season, he ended the campaign as the league's second top goalscorer behind Ishmael Maluleke. The following season, he claimed the Golden Boot award, becoming the second and, to date, most recent Pirates player to win the award, and helped the club to its second league title in three seasons.

His domestic form caught the attention of a host of European clubs and at the end of the season he underwent trials with Ligue 1 side Lyon and Greek side OFI Crete. On 9 August 2003, he scored a consolation goal in a 2–1 Supa 8 loss to Jomo Cosmos. The goal proved to be his last, though, as following the match, he died. He ultimately made 73 appearances for the club and scored 48 goals.

Continue to rest in peace Champ❤️🕊️

Rowen Fernández

Born : 28 February 1978
Place : Springs, SA
Position : Goalkeeper

Is a South African former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper.

Following a great season with The Students, Fernández was signed by Kaizer Chiefs from Wits University in 2001 along with midfielder Stanton Fredericks. Fernández was to be an understudy to Brian Baloyi, who was on the verge of landing a lucrative contract in Europe.

Fernández initially struggled to break into the first team, as Baloyi put up solid performances week in and week out. The big break finally came, when he made his debut in the Vodacom Challenge against Ghanaian side Hearts of Oak at Royal Bafokeng Stadium on 30 June 2001. Chiefs won the game 2–0. He made his PSL debut for Chiefs in a 2–1 win against Classic on 22 August 2001.

"Spider", as he is known due to his amazing love for creepy crawlies (snakes and spiders), was hospitalised in April 2003 after he was bitten by one of his spiders. He had also battled to command a first team place in the same season and only got a run in the 5–0 ABSA Cup first round victory against Sporting at Ellis Park.

However, the 2003–04 season started off very well for Fernández who was handed the number one jersey as Baloyi struggled with a niggling injury.

The former national under-23 star began his playing career at Benoni amateur side Benoni Northerns before joining Wits where he caught the eye of the under-23 selectors. He has six under-23 caps. During the 2006–07 season he scored two goals.

He kicked his way into the history books in February 2007 when he pounced on the rebound, after Brian Baloyi of Mamelodi Sundowns could only parry his retaken spot kick and knocked the ball home from close range. The fact that Rowen had missed the kick and scored on the rebound meant that his thirty second-minute equaliser against Sundowns was not classified as a penalty, but instead it was recorded as a goal scored from open play. The other goal resulted from a spot kick in a match against his former club Wits in September 2006.

Fernández joined German Bundesliga side Arminia Bielefeld in June 2007 on a free transfer after being out of contract with Chiefs to team up with former Chiefs coach Ernst Middendorp who then coached Arminia. Fernández lost his place as first choice goalkeeper to Dennis Eilhoff after injury. On 1 January 2011, during the January transfer window, Fernández left Arminia Bielefeld for SuperSport United.

Fernández made his full international debut for the South Africa national team in a 2–0 win against Tunisia in August 2004. He had hoped to be a part of his country's squad at the 2010 FIFA World Cup to be held in South Africa, but was omitted from the final 23 by coach Carlos Alberto Parreira in favour of Itumeleng Khune, Moeneeb Josephs and Shu-Aib Walters.
