MILAN (AP) — It is ever more likely that Inter Milan will secure the Serie A title in the derby match against AC Milan next round after the Rossoneri were held to a 3-3 draw at relegation-threatened Sassuolo on Sunday.
Second-placed Milan, which fought back from 3-1 down, was left 13 points behind Inter and if the Nerazzuri beat struggling Cagliari, they will only need a draw in the derby on April 22 to win a 20th league title and earn a second star on the team shirts.
A star is awarded for every 10 Serie A titles. Milan, like Inter, has won the Italian league 19 times.
Sassuolo, which is in penultimate position, inched to within a point of safety.
Milan got off to the worst possible start as it found itself 2-0 down inside 10 minutes following goals from Andrea Pinamonti and Armand Laurienté.
Samuel Chukwueze thought he had pulled one back for Milan in the 17th minute but it was ruled out for a tight offside decision as a portion of his shoulder was caught out.
