Inter Milan has secured their 21st Scudetto in the recently concluded Serie A season. The Milanese giants will compete in the Champions League next term alongside Napoli, Roma, and an unexpected qualifier, Como. Meanwhile, Verona, Pisa, and Cremonese face relegation to Serie B.
The final standings saw Milan and Juventus clinch Europa League spots, though their performances were characterized as disappointing. A notable upset occurred with Como defeating Juventus, a result that significantly impacted the final league positions and highlighted Como's unexpected surge. This match, delayed by pre-game altercations between ultras, concluded with Como overcoming Juventus despite early pressure from the visitors. Marc-Oliver Kempf opened the scoring for Como within four minutes, and a late strike from Paz sealed the victory, marking his fourth goal of the season.
Roma's strong performance secured their Champions League berth, a positive outcome for the capital club. Conversely, the season was deemed a "failure" for Fiorentina on all fronts.

Juventus's campaign, while ultimately leading to European qualification, is described as building on last year's foundation, offering a platform for future planning. Verona's squad composition was criticized as weak, despite initial efforts to contend in the early part of the season.
Inter had already mathematically secured the league title weeks before the final matchday, with Napoli confirming their Champions League qualification the preceding week. The final day's results, particularly concerning the European qualification spots, carried significant weight for clubs like Milan and Juventus.
