Inter Milan skipper Zanetti prepared to lead team from field
Inter Milan captain Javier Zanetti is ready to lead his players off the field if Juventus fans begin making racist chants at next week's game.
Juventus were fined £18,000 earlier this week after a section of their supporters sang distasteful chants about Inter striker Mario Balotelli during Sunday's match against Udinese.
Last April's Derby d'Italia was marred by racist chanting, prompting the Italian FA to recommend Juventus play a match behind closed doors.
Speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Zanetti said: “If something happens then I will not hesitate to go to the referee and ask him to stop the game.”

Shut up Zanetti. Mayber Inter are such pussies. Under the guidance of Moratti and "the special one" Boringho, how could they not be? What a joke they've become.
1st of all inter showed no dirty in football in any match not like juve wich was lead from outside moratti famly did all for this club wich u have to know how its raised and about the seira A u can see the matches b4 2006 even this is sport and should still be sport not dirty games by refs its clean now and see wheres juve and how many juve fans changed to crystal water club see how respectfull inter by adriano case and many more
they respect the players and above all the fans and u dont want capitano to defend his own team player idiot i think so we not said by cambiaso then his job as the inter skipper
and inter will lift the champoinship this season and u can just cry or jump from highest building in torin and inter fans respect any other team players see the matches more and u will relise that
good to see u have a nice day :P
Hye im from malta,and im a hardcore milan fan[they have a BIG fan club here] I never miss a game,italian is my 2nd language,i go to italy every year ive bgeen to milan a million times i even paid 750 euros to watch milan who were on very bad form for the derby against inter which you won 4-0.All i know is inter abuse from teams who arent at their best yet,they have no respect for anyone thats why everyone around the world hates inter!!!Look at milan or juve,or roma or fiorentine,everyone respects us because we won our league titles,weve won champiuons leagues lately,look at you,you were practically given 3 titles besides the one oif last year,and you havent won a CL in 43 years!!!Youre opportunistic babies,your teams starts doin badly,your ultras abandon the team,interisti dont support inter they just support against milan and juve!!!Youre like hyenas opportunistic sons oif B******!!!and balotelli is the perfect example of interisti a lost player like a lost team!!!!!oh,and he says hes a milanista??I find that a disgrace,maybe hge was once,but now all the black and blue got to his head,and now hes got the virus too!!
