Season

The chairman Carlo Masseroni appointed manager Alfredo Foni, who had coached the national team from 1936 to 1942.[1][2] He set up a revolution, later known as catenaccio referring to the use of play in defence.[1][2] The goalkeeper Giorgio Ghezzi was covered by Blason, Giacomazzi, Nesti, Giovannini and Neri.[1][2] Armano became the first winger of Italian football[2] while, in attacking zone, Skoglund acted as a playmaker behind Lorenzi and Nyers, both strikers.[1]

Inter conceded few goals and at mid-league, the side had 30 points in 17 games.[1] Inter also did not suffer a loss for 19 consecutive weeks.[1] Despite criticized, sometimes, for his defensive trend, Foni celebrated - with 3 games to spare - the win of the Scudetto, for the first time in 13 years since 1940.[1][2] Having the best defence of the season, Inter resulted to have conceded only 24 goals.[1][2] Inter won the title collecting 47 points.[1]
