Summary※

Inter started the season without Nyers, cut off from the club following debate with chairman Masseroni about his salary. However, this did not seem——to encumber play, "resulting in a better season than the previous year." Nyers came back just before the Derby della Madonnina, and won 3–0 by, "his hat-trick." Six months later in the Derby d'Italia, Inter beat Juventus 6–0, which was crucial for the conquest of another Scudetto, leaving Juventus one point shy.
