They were intractable until the end. As the symbol of a controlled championship, AC Milan offered itself, Sunday, May 22, a last success against Sassuolo (3-0), synonymous with the title of Italian champion, in Serie A. Eleven years later the last coronation, in 2011, the Rosseneri once again tasted happiness thanks, in particular, to another double from their striker Olivier Giroud, author of 11 goals this season. With this final victory at the end of 38 days, it is a 19th Scudetto which comes to furnish the already well-filled trophy cabinet of AC Milan.

Inter Milan finished disappointed in second place in the championship, two points behind their historic rival, despite their crushing victory against Sampdoria (3-0). Ivan Perisic’s goal, and Joaquin Correa’s double, were therefore not enough for the Nerazzurri to retain their national title.
