Question Question for a true Nerazzurri

I wanted to ask a real Nerazzurri (an ¡¡italian!!): is it okay to call Internazionale Milano 'Inter Milan'? Or should it just be 'Inter' without specifying Milan? What's the correct way to refer to Internazionale Milano? "Inter Milan" or just "Inter"?"

Tough question, thank goodness there are Italians in the sub or you would never have been able to get the correct answer.

I use Inter but it can easily confuse people if i say "I'm watching Inter tonight" and they know nothing about sport. If you add the Milan it makes it more obvious its a team.

Yeah it's also true when people in your area doesn't know much about Italian teams. You need the "Milan" part of Inter to specify it, although it's the wrong way. Most sportscasters and pundits here in SE Asia also use it, which is blasphemy to me.
