Inter Milan celebrated their Italian championship title by beating Ricardo Rodriguez’s Torino 2-0 on Sunday.
Yann Sommer and his teammates were to celebrate the 20th ‘scudetto’ in their history with their supporters in the streets of Milan in the afternoon.
Certain of being crowned since its victory (2-1) in the derby against AC Milan on Monday, Inter won thanks to a double from Hakan Calhanoglu (56th and 60th on penalty). The Nerazzurri suffered in the first period, with Torino offering themselves the two clearest chances thanks to Colombian Duvan Zapata (15th and 17th).
Thanks to this 28th victory in 34 matches, for only one defeat conceded, Inter further increased its lead over its two great rivals, AC Milan and Juventus, who neutralized each other 0-0 on Saturday. Noah Okafor’s AC Milan, 2nd, is 19 points behind and Juve, 3rd, 24 points!
Simone Inzaghi’s team can break several Serie A records by the end of the season on May 26, including that of the largest gap between a champion and his runner-up (22 points between Inter and AS Roma in 2006/07).
