ROME, July 26 (Reuters) - Italy's soccer federation has awarded the 2005-2006 Serie A title to Inter Milan, a federation official told Reuters on Wednesday. Inter, which had not won the title since 1989, finished third in last season's championship behind winners Juventus and AC Milan.
The decision to award the title to Inter comes after a sports tribunal handed down guilty verdicts to Juventus and AC Milan following a match-fixing scandal.
The match-fixing charges all related to the 2004-5 championship, which the FIGC said would remain vacant. No wrongdoing has been alleged for the 2005-6 championship now awarded to Inter.
