Inter Milan moved a step closer to securing the Serie A title after a commanding 3-0 victory over Cagliari on Friday, extending their lead at the top of the table to a provisional 12 points.

Goals from Marcus Thuram and Nicolo Barella shortly after halftime, followed by a late strike from Piotr Zielinski, sealed a comfortable win at the San Siro.
The result leaves Inter potentially just one win away from clinching their 21st league title, depending on results elsewhere. Their closest rivals, Napoli, are set to face Lazio, a match that could further shape the title race.
Despite the growing gap, Thuram urged caution, saying the team must continue to focus and collect points. His goal, a simple finish from a precise cross by Federico Dimarco, marked his fourth in three matches. Barella soon doubled the lead, scoring against his former club before apologising to the visiting supporters.
Inter maintained control throughout, with fans already celebrating what appears to be an inevitable title triumph. Zielinski added a third in stoppage time with a powerful strike from outside the box.
Elsewhere, Como suffered a setback in their push for a top-four finish after a 2-1 defeat to Sassuolo. Goals from Cristian Volpato and M’Bala Nzola secured the win, leaving Como fifth in the standings.
The defeat dents Como’s hopes of qualifying for European competition, with pressure mounting from teams including Juventus and Roma, while AC Milan remain third despite inconsistent form.
With only a handful of matches remaining, Inter appear firmly on course to reclaim the Serie A crown, while the battle for European qualification intensifies.
