Under manager Héctor Cúper, Inter Milan had a challenging Serie A campaign, finishing 4th, securing UEFA Champions League qualification. The squad featured stars like Christian Vieri, Ronaldo, Hakan Şükür, and Javier Zanetti, blending attacking firepower with experienced leadership. Despite their talent, inconsistency and defensive lapses prevented a sustained title challenge, and the team struggled to maintain cohesion at key moments. In domestic cup competitions, Inter made limited progress, while in Europe, they reached the UEFA Cup second round. The season reflected a talented but underperforming side, highlighting the need for tactical and squad adjustments to compete at the top level.
