Milan, a ‘scudetto’ where the goal is everyone’s business

Football titles have always been the result of concerted efforts and the success of Milan, who have now been declared Serie A champions for the first time since 2011, proves this. The ‘rossoneri’ showed that a 38-game championship could be won without a goalcorer being achieved.

Up to 16 players from Stefano Pioli’s team worked together to win a title with at least one goal. A fact that reflects the offensive vocation of the team starting on the defensive line.

Too far from Immobile

In total, Milan have scored 69 goals in 38 games played up to the wing. Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud, both with 11, are their particular Pichichis but ahead of the Portuguese and French, this at 35 years old, there are up to 14 gunners on the list of top scorers in Series A and the ‘capocannoniere’ The Ciro Immobile (Lazio) has more than double the number of goals (27).

After Leao and Giroud, Milan’s scoring podium was completed by another famous veteran, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who had 8 goals at the age of 40, despite missing many games due to injuries.

Kessié, who will play for Barça next season, has 6 goals, Junior Messias, Tonali and Theo Hernández, 5; Brahim Diaz, 3; Bennacer, Calabria, Florenzi and Rebic, 2, while Kalului, Daniel Maldini, Romagnoli and Saelemaekers signed one.

As in the previous ‘scudetto’ of 2011

The ‘scudetto’ that Milan just won has some similarities to its predecessor in 2011 in terms of goalscoring. Then the ‘rossoneri’ scored 65 goals and were also widely distributed, although more than anyone else Ibrahimovic, Alexandre Pato and Robinho stood out, scoring 14 goals each, only half of Antonio’s 28 goals. Di Natale (Udinese).

In front of that Milan trident there were seven players from other teams who scored more goals. Among their teammates, they were followed by Seedorf and Cassano, with 4, and Kevin Pronce Boateng, with 3. Pippo Inzaghi, Gattuso and Flamini worked together for the title with 2, and Thiago Silva or Pirlo with 1.
