In the 1997–98 season, the Italian football club Inter Milan, managed by Luigi Simoni, won the UEFA Cup and achieved second place in the Serie A league.
Season overview
Massimo Moratti relied on Luigi Simoni as coach and on Ronaldo as star.[1] Further purchases resulted in Diego Simeone, Francesco Moriero and Álvaro Recoba who – in his debut – scored twice, helping Inter beat Brescia in a 2–1 comeback.[2] Compared to the previous seasons, it proved to be better for Inter who mounted their first serious shot at the title since 1989.[3]
However, with a loss at Juventus, the reigning champions won 1–0, holding three points over Inter.[4] Ten days later, Inter won – for the third time in the last seven years – the UEFA Cup beating Lazio 3–0.[5] The domestic league ended with Inter in second place, last achieved in 1993.
