AC Milan win Serie A title for the first time in 11 years

AC Milan defeated Sassulo 3-0 to win the 2021-22 Serie A title, with arch-rivals Inter finishing second after a dramatic final day tussle.

The club coached by Stafano Pioli coasted to victory on Sunday to earn their first Scudetto title in 11 years, rendering Inter’s own 3-0 win, at home to Sampdoria, futile.

During the match, Olivier Giroud scored twice before Franck Kessie put the result beyond doubt before half-time.

AC Milan end more than a decade of poor performances in Serie A as it has been 11 years since Milan last won the title, due to a lingering financial crisis off the pitch and lack of star players and good coaches.
