At the beginning of the winning season, no one thought that Milan would be able to get even in the top 5 of the tournament table. The generation of great players was already playing out, and nobody could demand anything from aged Nesta, Ambrosini, Oddo, Zambrotta, and Filippo Inzaghi. However, the players coped with the job and managed to quickly return the team to the first place in the 11th round, after which Milan didn’t give up its position and became the champion quite confidently.

Milan’s path to the title 2010/11

As mentioned above, the start of the campaign was rather nervous for Rosso Neri. In the Serie A league table, Milan occupied the 8th position after 5 rounds. The defeat from Cesena and Catania lowered the team to 13th. A lot of criticism fell on the club, but it was too early to draw any conclusions. As a result, Milan’s path can be divided into the following stages:

• laxity at the beginning of the season — 2 victories, 2 draws and 1 loss in 5 matches, which lowered the team to the eighth place;
• from the 5th to the 10th round, Milan played more confidently but after losing to the main rival, Juventus, they couldn’t rise above the second place;
• from 11th to 38th round — full-fledged domination over rivals in the championship.

The most interesting thing in the final table of the Italian league Seria A is that Milan missed only 24 goals. The experienced defense played at the maximum, and no matter how everyone criticized the team’s veterans, they fulfilled their tasks at the highest level. This Milan was not the best in history, but the club deserved its championship title.
