Tino Anjorin shone in his first start for Empoli, setting up the opening goal in a 2-0 win over Cagliari. The victory marks Empoli’s fifth consecutive undefeated match, their best start to a Serie A season. Meanwhile, Torino climbed to the top of the league table with a hard-fought 3-2 victory against Verona, despite playing most of the game with 10 men.
Inter Milan celebrated their 20th Italian league title with a victory over Torino and a parade in Milan. The team clinched the title with a derby victory over AC Milan last week and has continued their dominance ever since. Hakan Calhanoglu scored two second-half goals, extending their lead over second-place Milan to 19 points. Other highlights from the weekend’s football matches include: Roma’s draw with Napoli, Fiorentina’s victory over Sassuolo, Atalanta’s win over Empoli, and Bologna’s late goal draw with Udinese. The first leg of the Europa League semifinals will see Roma hosting Bayer Leverkusen and Atalanta visiting Marseille.
