Henrikh Mkhitaryan double leads Internazionales rout of Milan



Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored twice to help Internazionale crush Milan 5-1 in Serie A on Saturday and continue their perfect start to the season. Inter, who won their first three matches without conceding a goal, moved two points clear at the top of the standings on 12 points from four games.

They are two points above second-placed Juventus, who beat Lazio 3-1 on Saturday, and three clear of Milan in third before they travel to Real Sociedad in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Mkhitaryan, Marcus Thuram, Hakan Calhanoglu and Davide Frattesi were all on target for Inter, securing their fifth consecutive win in the Milan derby across all competitions for the first time in history.

Mkhitaryan struck from close range to put Inter in front in the fifth minute and new signing Thuram doubled the advantage before the break with a fine shot into the top corner for his first Serie A goal.

Milan pulled one back just before the hour mark through Rafael Leão, who latched on to a pass and shot past Yann Sommer as a sudden downpour of rain struck San Siro.

Inter allowed Stefano Pioli's side control of possession but were far more ruthless and Mkhitaryan made it 3-1 in the 69th minute before the midfielder Calhanoglu added the fourth from a penalty awarded for Theo Hernandez's foul on Lautaro Martínez.

The substitute Frattesi completed the rout in stoppage time when he was fed by Mkhitaryan and the 23-year-old outwitted the goalkeeper to find the back of the net.

Inter have beaten Milan a record 69 times in Serie A and scored a record 256 goals against their city rivals in the competition.

Osho on Spontaneity

Osho on Spontaneity – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity Osho – Divine purity reduced to practical life means spontaneity. The spontaneous person is innocent. He has a quality that only children have, and that is the meaning of purity, innocence. He has the quality that animals have and the trees have and which man has lost. To be spontaneous means not to act out of the past, because out of the past is all cunningness, cleverness, calculation, arithmetic. When you act in the moment and it has no reference to your past, the action has a beauty, a purity – the same as a small child’s act. Whether he laughs or cries or goes into a tantrum or becomes angry, all his acts have purity – it is uncalculated. His anger is hot and not cold. The calculated anger is cold. His anger is natural, a responsiveness. He has not brooded over it, he has not planned it. He is just in the hands of nature – hence the beauty. He is surrendered to his nature; he is not trying to cont...
