For the sixth time in a Champions League final will participate the Inter!
After the second victory and qualification against Milan, the Nerazzurri will be in Istanbul on June 10, where they will await the winner Manchester City-Real Madrid. But what have they done in the previous five finals?
First, they count three conquests and two defeats. The beginning was made in the distant 1964, prevailing 3-1 of Real Madrid in Vienna, with Mazzola scoring two goals. The sequel came just one year later and even at her headquarters! There, the “neratzuri” prevailed 1-0 of Benfica at Giuseppe Meazza, with Zaire scoring the much-coveted goal for his side.
However, two years later came the first… failed attempt in the final, with the Celtic to win 2-1 and lift this trophy in the sky of Lisbon. The 1972 final had the same outcome for the Milanese, with the… huge Johan Cruyff to score twice and give the trophy to Ajax, inside the “De Cape”.
Inter returned to a final and successful results as recently as 2010. This time, with Jose Mourinho on the counter and the Diego Milito in the prime of his football career, the Nerazzurri beat Bayern 2-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu, with the Argentinian top scorer scoring both of his side’s goals.
Now, Simone Inzaghi’s side have a very big chance to conquer it again, 13 years after the… epic in the Spanish capital.
