Del Piero Reacts to Kalulu Red Card: Chivu and Bastoni Under Fire (2026)

The Juventus legend, Alessandro Del Piero, has sparked a debate with his recent criticism of Inter Milan's head coach, Cristian Chivu, and defender, Alessandro Bastoni. The incident in question occurred during the highly anticipated Derby d'Italia match, where Del Piero's comments have ignited a fiery discussion. But here's where it gets controversial... Del Piero believes that Chivu's interpretation of the sending-off of Pierre Kalulu was incorrect, and he also questioned Bastoni's dramatic fall under Kalulu's challenge. The legendary forward, who was a pundit for Sky Sport Italia, expressed his disappointment, stating that Inter Milan doesn't need such controversies. He emphasized the importance of maintaining a strong and respectful team spirit, especially when a victory is achieved through controversial means. This has sparked a debate among football enthusiasts, with some agreeing that Chivu's defense of the team was unnecessary and that Bastoni's reaction was over the top. But is Del Piero's criticism fair? And what do you think? Do you agree with his assessment, or do you believe that Chivu and Bastoni were justified in their actions?
