Okegoal.com - Inter Milan secured the Scudetto in style this season. La Beneamata not only made it in the derby, but also asserted its dominance there.
Inter Milan confirmed themselves as Serie A champions this season thanks to a 2-1 victory over AC Milan at the San Siro early in the morning of the WIB on Tuesday (23/3/2024). Milan were only able to respond to the goals from Francesco Acerbi and Marcus Thuram once through Fikayo Tomori.
This means Inter is firmly at the top of the table with 86 points. They are already 17 points ahead of Milan in second place and will not be caught in the remaining five games this season.
Not only did they secure the title with great prestige in the derby game, Inter continued their impressive record in this game too. They have won their last six meetings against Milan in all competitions, a streak that began on January 18, 2023.
In this series, Inter scored a total of 14 goals and only conceded two goals. This confirms the Nerazzurri's dominance over their city rivals.
Inter's success in securing the Scudetto in this derby game also resulted in another record. They were the first to confirm the champions in a derby match since the one-round league format was introduced in 1929/1930.
Some are successful, some are unhappy. While Inter enjoyed their dominance in the Derby della Madonnina, there was a bitter note in the Milan camp.
Stefano Pioli is the coach with the most defeats in the Milan derby, 10 times, all as a Rossoneri player. He was also the first to lose six derbies in a row with Milan.
