Monday, April 22, saw Inter Milan win Serie A after defeating AC Milan 2-1 and establishing an unstoppable advantage at the top of the league with their sixth consecutive derby triumph. With five games left in the season, Inter had a 17-point lead over Milan, their closest rivals, thanks to goals from Francesco Acerbi and Marcus Thuram. This is Inter's 20th league title.
On a chilly, drenching evening at the San Siro, where a small group of Inter's "away" supporters in the 75,000-strong audience erupted in joy at the final whistle, Simone Inzaghi won the first league title of his managerial existence. With 10 minutes remaining, Fikayo Tomori grabbed one back for Milan, but Inter held out to start a title celebration. Milan made a fight out of it in the closing seconds.
