How Inter Milan Could Make Serie A History If Winning Scudetto After Suffering Derby Double | OneFootball

Inter Milan have laid the groundwork for winning their 21st Serie A title despite Sunday’s setback in the Milan derby.

According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri could rewrite the division’s history books this season.

Pervis Estupinan’s goal inspired AC Milan to a controversial 1-0 win in Sunday’s Derby della Madonnina.

In doing so, the Ecuadorian wingback helped the Rossoneri whittle down the gap on table-topping Inter to seven points.

However, with ten games remaining until the end of the season, the Scudetto is Inter’s to lose.

Indeed, Cristian Chivu remains in firm control of the title race.

Interestingly, Inter have never won the Scudetto when losing both league meetings with Milan.

Yet, Chivu’s charges could change that this term.

Furthermore, no team in the three-point era has won the championship after losing twice to the second-placed side.

Indeed, the last time this happened was in the 1982/83 season, when Roma fell twice to Juventus.

On that basis, Inter have a chance to make history by securing the Scudetto despite dropping both clashes to their city rivals.

It would be a perfect way for Chivu to close out his first season in charge of the San Siro powerhouse.
