Under manager Luigi Simoni, Inter Milan enjoyed a historic season, winning the Serie A title—their first league championship in 17 years. The squad was spearheaded by Ronaldo, whose extraordinary goalscoring and creativity proved decisive, supported by midfielders Javier Zanetti and Nicola Berti, and attackers like Iván Zamorano. The team combined attacking flair with tactical organisation, consistently outclassing domestic rivals. In European competition, Inter reached the UEFA Cup quarter-finals, demonstrating competitiveness but falling short of continental glory. The 1997/98 campaign is remembered for Ronaldo’s brilliance and Inter’s return to domestic supremacy after a prolonged title drought.
