ROME -- It will likely be Silvio Berlusconis final derby as AC Milan owner. And the first for Inters new Chinese proprietors.Plus Silvio Piolis debut as coach of struggling Inter.Combined with the rise of Milans youth-oriented squad after several difficult seasons, Sundays match is being celebrated both as the end of an era and a time of new beginnings.It seems like a different derby compared to the last several, in terms of interest, tickets, standings and the new developments in club ownership, Milan vice president Adriano Galliani said.Berlusconi, who purchased Milan 30 years ago, is expected to close a deal next month selling his majority stake in the club to a Chinese investor group that includes the participation of a Chinese state investment fund.While seven-time European champion Milan has not qualified for continental play for three consecutive seasons, the Rossoneri have seen a turnaround this season under first-year coach Vincenzo Montella.Relying on 17-year-old goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, 18-year-old midfielder Manuel Locatelli and forward MBaye Niang, a relative veteran at 21, Montella has guided Milan to third place with a new sense of team unity.After all these difficult years full of problems which Im not going to list now, this might be the first time that were re-establishing a close-knit group, Milan midfielder Andrea Poli said. Were on the right road and weve got to continue along this path.Inter, meanwhile, is languishing in ninth place with just as many losses -- five -- as wins this season.Pioli, the former Chievo Verona and Lazio coach, was hired last week to replace the fired Frank de Boer.De Boer was hired less than two weeks before the season began following the unexpected resignation of Roberto Mancini, who reportedly wanted more control over the transfer market and clashed with Suning, the Chinese retail giant that took control of 70 percent of Inter in June.Usually a coaching change brings good luck and the derby is often won by the underdog, former Inter president Massimo Moratti said. But its not an easy job for Pioli. Hes got a difficult match right away. But hes intelligent and hes been able to get his squads to play well.Inter has a wide array of top-quality players -- such as Mauro Icardi, who tops the Serie A scoring chart alongside Romas Edin Dzeko with 10 goals each, plus Croatia midfielder Ivan Perisic, Montenegro forward Stevan Jovetic and Italy internationals Eder and Antonio Candreva -- but the Nerazzurri were inconsistent and appeared confused under De Boer.When there are changes its never just the failure of a coach who is fired. Its also an alarm bell for the players, said former Milan standout Demetrio Albertini.When you make a change it shakes things up. So Inter will have the advantage of having a new coach and the players will want to prove themselves, Albertini added. Qualitatively, theyre extraordinary players but they havent shown their value yet this season.When Mancini returned to Inter in November 2014, the derby was also his first match back in charge. The game ended in a 1-1 draw.In a move linked to Inters past, the clubs former defender Walter Samuel was hired as one of Piolis assistants.Samuel scored when Inter won the derby 1-0 four years ago.Thats a great and useful move, Moratti said. We needed him.---Andrew Dampf on Twitter: www.twitter.com/asdampfLarry Fitzgerald Jersey Cheap .

This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way.
