Inter Milan: How many trophies has Simone Inzaghi won as Nerazzurri boss?
Simone Inzaghi guided Inter Milan to another Serie A title on Monday, with the Nerazzurri beating AC Milan in Monday’s Derby della Madonnina.
AC Milan vs Inter Milan
Inter needed to defeat their rivals in the Milan derby to be assured of a 20th league crown, and Inzaghi’s men came up trumps to inflict a sixth straight loss on the Rossoneri in this fixture.
Francesco Acerbi gave the Nerazzurri 1-0 up after a training ground set-piece routine, and that advantage was doubled by Marcus Thuram early into the second half.
That lead was halved by Fikayo Tomori in the game’s concluding minutes, leaving Inter to sweat as Stefano Pioli’s team rallied in search of the equaliser. However, Inter held on for the victory to claim the title and move one ahead of Milan’s 19.
Simone Inzaghi has won a league title for the first time in his managerial career. 🏆

He's now won every top-flight trophy in Italian football as both a player and a manager:

How many titles has Inzaghi won at Inter?
Having previously thrived in cup competitions, Inzaghi finally claimed his first league title since becoming a manager to notch his sixth honour as Inter boss.
Since replacing Antonio Conte in 2021, the 48-year-old has won back-to-back Coppa Italia titles in 2022 and 2023 and notched three straight Supercoppa Italiana wins in 2021, 2022 and 2023 before this season's Scudetto.
His six titles put him behind only Helenio Herrera and Roberto Mancini's seven trophies for the Nerazzurri, and Inzaghi will tie both erstwhile Inter bosses with any subsequent success.

What comes next for Inter?
Inter have stayed undefeated in 27 straight Serie A matches and are edging closer to the 31-match unbeaten streak — between April 2007 and February 2008 — with the club record 33-game runs from May 2006-April 2007 and May 2004 and February 2005 still a distance away from being matched.
Even though they cannot eclipse Juventus' 102-point record, Inzaghi’s men could still hit the 100-point mark if they claim victories in their remaining five matches in 2023-24.
