Inter Milan Crowned Champions in Historic Derby della Madonnina Triumph
Inter Milan etched their names into history on Sunday, securing their 20th Serie A title with a dramatic victory over arch-rivals AC Milan in the Derby della Madonnina. This wasn't just any win; it was the first time a team secured the Scudetto in the 116-year history of the Milan derby, adding an extra layer of significance to Inter's triumph.
The win wasn't just about bragging rights, though. It was a decisive blow in the tight Serie A title race. AC Milan, Inter's closest challengers, were left 17 points behind with just five games remaining. The victory effectively sealed the championship for the Nerazzurri.
Inter started the match strong, taking the lead early in the 18th minute. A well-worked corner found Francesco Acerbi unmarked in the box, who nodded home past a helpless Mike Maignan in the AC Milan goal. Inter continued to press for more goals, with Lautaro Martinez missing a clear-cut chance and Hakan Calhanoglu forcing a great save from Maignan.
The Rossoneri fought back in the second half, but Inter's defense held firm. The win secured a first Serie A title for manager Simone Inzaghi, who took charge in 2021. This victory will surely be celebrated for years to come by Inter fans, marking a historic moment not just for the club, but for Serie A itself.
