Inter Milan Celebrates With An Open-air Bus Parade After Securing The Serie A Title – News18

MILAN: Thousands of fans lined the streets on Sunday as Inter Milan was paraded in an open-air bus from the San Siro stadium to the city cathedral to celebrate the Nerazzurri’s 20th Italian league title.

The celebration followed a 2-0 home win over Torino on Sunday, which came six days after Inter sealed the title in memorable fashion with a derby victory over city rival AC Milan.

Inter players threw coach Simone Inzaghi into the air on the San Siro pitch to get the celebration rolling.

Hakan Calhanoglu scored two second-half goals to extend Inter’s advantage to 19 points over second-place Milan, which was held to a 0-0 draw by third-place Juventus on Saturday.

Also, fourth-place Bologna required a late goal from Alexis Saelemaekers to secure a 1-1 draw with relegation-threatened Udinese.

Later Sunday, fifth-place Roma played at struggling defending champion Napoli; Atalanta faced Empoli; and Fiorentina hosted Sassuolo.
