AC Milan legend Paolo Maldini insists defeat to rivals Inter will not be decisive in the race for the Serie A title.

Maldini will play his 55th Derby della Madonnina on Sunday.

“It is an important game, but it comes early into the season and so there will be time for everyone to recover lost ground,” said Maldini.

“Naturally our position in the table makes us a little anxious because we didn’t start out well, but we want to change direction.”

Maldini added on Inter boss Jose Mourinho: “I like Jose Mourinho. I think he came to Italy in order to continue his career trajectory that went from Porto to Chelsea and now Inter.

“With a strong personality like him at the helm, sometimes you forget that it’s the players who put in the performance.

“Right now I am more concerned about the Inter attack than who is on the bench, although Mourinho is definitely different from the others in how he handles the media.”
