Summary edit

In the 1901–02 season, Milan reached the final of the Italian Championship for the second time in a row, this time without playing any knockout game being winner of the previous edition, but lost against Genoa. The final of the tournament was strangely played in Genoa instead of Milan, who were the title holders. Some sources explain the change of venue of the final by hypothesizing an economic compensation given by the Genoans in favor of Milan planyers.[1]

This season, Milan won the third and final edition of the Medaglia del Re, thus earning the right to retain the trophy. Worth mentioning the victory in the semi-finals against the rivals of Genoa, with a 4–1 score.

In May 1902 the team participated in the Campionato Nazionale di Ginnastica (National Gymnastics Championship) football tournament. After eliminating Vicenza in the semi-finals (3-1), the club won the trophy ex aequo with Andrea Doria at the end of a final that ended with a goalless draw.[2]
