Summary

The club started Serie A with a surprising 3-3 at Lucca, l'Ambrosiana, managed by Armando Castellazzi, reached the top of the table on ninth round, defeating Juventus.[1] On round 15, the squad won the symbolic campione d'inverno with 4 points over Bologna. The second part of the season is opened with a massive score against Lucchese; on round 22 Juventus grabbed the club, then Inter retake the advantage by 2 points next Sunday. The team took the distance of 3 points on round 26, after the match against Liguria. Following the result of Inter, Juventus lost its game against Trieste and not won the game of Liguria. So, Ambrosiana remained over top in the last round with 39 points, followed by Juventus with 38 and Bologna. The squad clinched the title on final round, winning the match of Bari.

When Ambrosiana beat Bari, Meazza scored five goals in a 9–2 victory.[2] The next week he scored a hat-trick against Lucchese. Along with fellow Inter players Ferraris II, Ferrari, and Locatelli, Meazza was involved in the Azzurri set-up that wins the 1938 World Cup in Paris. Castellazzi with 33 years old became the youngest manager winning the scudetto, a record remained nowadays.

A good performance of the club in Coppa Italia, only stopped by Juventus (0-2) in semifinals, champion of the trophy. In Mitropa Cup the team advanced to Quarterfinals,[3] defeated by Slavia Prague (0-9; 3-1); infamous record of the worst loss game by a score of 9 goals against.[4]
