However, this was not enough for those responsible. It would be too much to break the dominance of Juve and even celebrate the 19th title in the league.

The 33 goals for Inter meant the second-best value in the league behind champions Turin. At home, the Milan had to plug only ten goals in 19 games. Only the defense with Godin is even stronger.
There were four wins in six games in preparation, three of them on penalties. It tested Inter against strong opponents such as Manchester United, Juve, PSG, the Spurs or Valencia. Inter has to renounce injury due to new entry Godin. For Mauro Icardi still no buyer was found. The striker is currently no longer part of the squad.

In preparation, Lecce played mainly against underclass opponents. In addition, the club had already ran on last Sunday in the Coppa Italia.
