Gattuso not blaming Donnarumma for derby defeat

Gennaro Gattuso refused to blame Gianluigi Donnarumma for a late error that handed Inter a 1-0 win in the Milan derby.

The AC Milan goalkeeper misjudged a superb right-wing cross from Matias Vecino in the 92nd minute, allowing Mauro Icardi to head into an unguarded net.

Icardi also won the first derby of last season with a late penalty that completed a hat-trick, and the Inter captain has now scored five goals in his last four games against Milan.
