FC Internazionale Milano (Serie A TIM) wore a "special patch" on their shirt sleeves during the Milan derby versus AC Milan (4-2, Matchday 23 on 09/02/2020, kick-off at 20:45 CET) at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (78,326 capacity), to show their support for the city of Wuhan (CHN), the epicenter of the recent Coronavirus outbreak which has claimed 910 lives (as of 10/02/2020).

The message "Forza China" featured on the club's left shirt sleeves, while the messages "Today and always", "Together as a team" and "Forza Wuhan" were also displayed in various areas of the club's stadium.

"The club's president Steven Zhang (CHN) and Inter have donated 300,000 masks for medical usage in Wuhan over the past few days, while the Suning Group (Chinese multinational company and owner of the club) have supported the cause since the outbreak of the emergency, providing free shipping services and donations of products imported from abroad to hospitals and local institutions," said the Italian club.
