“A crazy match for something crazy.” The derby definitely went well for Marcus Thuram, who was delighted at the end of the match. Just before the 50th minute, with his club leading and heading towards the title, the Frenchman arrived from the left to the edge of the penalty area, unleashed a right-footed strike to beat Mike Maignan, thus reinforcing the hopes of an entire team.

His twelfth goal of the season – to which must be added seven assists – and, above all, the goal of the break for Inter Milan. Despite a few scares, including a goal from Fikayo Tomori, Thuram’s teammates won (2-1) against AC Milan on Monday April 22. A victory which marks the triumph of Simone Inzaghi’s men, who won the 20th Scudetto in the club’s history, from the 33rd day.

Only one defeat in the league

We have to go back to September 27, 2023, during the 6th day of the championship, to find the trace of a defeat for Inter in Serie A. They then conceded two goals at home, against Sassuolo. Since then, the club has had a string of good results (22 wins and 5 draws). This is partly thanks to its main scorers: Marcus Thuram, but also Lautaro Martinez, best director in the championship with 23 goals.

“We made Serie A history”welcomed the Argentinian after the meeting. “We worked a lot, we suffered a lot, we changed more than ten players last summer, we really deserve this titlehe added on DAZN’s microphone. Winning a title in a derby had never happened. That’s what I told my teammates before this match, we really had to seize this opportunity.”
