Inter Milan officially came out as champions of the Italian Serie A 2020-2021 season after Atalanta was held to a 1-1 draw at Sassuolo, Sunday (2/5/2021).
One additional point makes the club nicknamed La Dea collect the same points as AC Milan, which previously won over Benevento, which is 69 points.
Meanwhile, Inter collected 82 points after the previous day 2-0 win over Crotone through goals from Cristian Eriksen (69 minutes) and Achraf Hakimi (90 + 2 minutes).
With four games remaining, Inter Milan points can no longer be pursued by the two competing clubs below. The reason is that even though AC Milan and Atalanta were able to win all the remaining matches, the maximum points that can be collected is 81 points.
Inter Milan also officially won the Italian Serie A trophy as well as breaking Juventus dominance in the last 9 years.
This title is Scudetto 19 for Inter Milan, or the first in 11 years. The last time the club nicknamed the Nerazzurri won the Scudetto was in 2010, when Jose Mourinho led his club to the treble winner (Champions League, Serie A and Copa Italia).
Uniquely, the coach who succeeded in stopping the domination of Juventus was Antonio Conte who was also the coach who opened the domination of Juventus after the club nicknamed La Vecchia Signora was hit by the Calciopoli case.
This scudetto title is Conte fourth title in his coaching career where the previous three titles were won while still coaching Juventus
Inter Milan Raih Scudetto Ke-19, Conte Hentikan Dominasi Juventus
Inter Milan secara resmi keluar sebagai juara Serie-A Italia musim 2020-2021 setelah Atalanta ditahan imbang Sassuolo 1-1, Minggu (2/5/2021).
Tambahan satu poin membuat klub berjuluk La Dea itu mengoleksi perolehan poin yang sama dengan AC Milan yang sebelumnya meraih kemenangan atas Benevento, yakni 69 poin.
Sementara itu Inter sudah mengoleksi 82 poin setelah sehari sebelumnya menang atas Crotone dengan skor 2-0 lewat gol Cristian Eriksen (menit 69) dan Achraf Hakimi (menit 90+2).
Dengan menyisakan empat laga, perolehan poin Inter Milan tidak akan mampu lagi dikejar dua klub pesaing dibawahnya. Sebab meskipun AC Milan dan Atalanta mampu memenangi seluruh laga sisa, maka maksimal perolehan poin yang bisa dikumpulkan adalah 81 poin.
Inter Milan pun resmi meraih trofi Serie-A Italia sekaligus memutus dominasi Juventus dalam 9 tahun terakhir. Gelar tersebut merupakan Scudetto ke-19 untuk Inter Milan, atau yang pertama semenjak 11 tahun terakhir.
Terakhir kali klub berjuluk I Nerazzurri itu meraih Scudetto adalah pada tahun 2010, tepatnya ketika Jose Mourinho membawa klubnya itu meraih treble winner (Liga Champions, Serie-A dan Copa Italia).
Uniknya, pelatih yang berhasil memutus dominasi Juventus adalah Antonio Conte yang juga merupakan sosok pelatih yang membuka dominasi Juventus pasca klub berjuluk La Vecchia Signora itu terkena kasus pengaturan skor (Calciopoli).
Gelar scudetto ini merupakan gelar keempat dalam karir kepelatihannya dimana tiga gelar sebelumnya diraih saat masih melatih Juventus.
