Inter Milan Crowned Serie A Champions After Milan Derby Victory
Rossoneri Downed as Nerazzurri Secure 20th Scudetto
Inter Milan have been crowned champions of Italy for the 20th time after a 2-1 victory in the Milan derby on Sunday. The win, secured in front of a raucous home crowd at the San Siro, gives Inter their first Serie A title since 2021 and extends their lead at the top of the table to an unassailable 11 points with three games remaining.
Simone Inzaghi's side took the lead in the 34th minute through a Lautaro Martinez penalty, before Federico Dimarco doubled their advantage just before the hour mark. AC Milan pulled one back through Olivier Giroud, but Inter held on to claim a famous victory.
A Season of Dominance
Inter have been in imperious form throughout the 2023-24 campaign, losing just four league games all season. They have been particularly strong at home, where they have won 17 of their 19 matches.
Inzaghi has been widely praised for his work at Inter, with the Italian tactician now having won two Serie A titles in his four years in charge. He has also guided the Nerazzurri to the 2022 Supercoppa Italiana and the 2023 Coppa Italia.
A City United in Celebration
Sunday's victory was greeted with jubilation by Inter fans across the city of Milan. The Nerazzurri faithful have had to endure a long wait for their 20th league title, and they celebrated their triumph in style.
