The relegation of Juventus to Serie B due to Calciopoli , and Milan and Fiorentina 's penalisations, made Inter a clear favourite for the title: the side was empowered with the arrivals of Zlatan Ibrahimović , Patrick Vieira , Fabio Grosso and Maicon .[1] In early September, the club suffered a tragedy: Inter's president Giacinto Facchetti died at the age of 64, due to a cancer.[2]
The 2006–07 season was signed by records: Inter won 17 games in row for an achievement still unbeaten.[3] Inter also got 11 wins in away matches and obtained the title with 5 games left to play.[4] The side ended with 97 points, 22 over Roma which came second: in 38 matches Inter collected 30 wins, 7 draws and just one defeat (the first in Serie A since April 2006).[5]
