How we label and update stories

Source context

Last night’s win against Inter was proof of the quality within the AC Milan squad, so now it’s a case of continuing on the path upwards. For Milan, a win in the derby wasn’t essential. Yes, it would always be a big help, but avoiding defeat was the priority, given a 10-point gap would’ve opened to the title leaders. Yet, the Rossoneri were brave and fought for three points, even if most would’ve taken one. A defining performance of the Ruben Amorim era so far, everyone played their role stupendously – and that includes the Portuguese, who tactically outclassed his counterpart.
