Inter Podcast [ENG]

He seems to like playing at the Gewiss Stadium: in August he scored a splendid goal, while today he produced a wonderful assist. Ashley Young was one of the Nerazzurri’s top performers as Atalanta and Inter played out a 1-1 draw.

Liverpool is where our triumphant run to the 1964 European Cup final began. The city was undergoing a cultural and musical revolution with the Beatles freshly formed in 1960. The Mersey Millionaires, Goodison Park and an atmosphere Romelu Lukaku is very familiar with are just some of the talking points in our first Champions League story as part of our Euro Nights series.

Inter's Romelu Lukaku has topped the list of the best players in the 2019/20 UEFA Europa League. The 27-year-old finished ahead of Bruno Fernandes and Éver Banega to win the fourth edition of the award.

Anna Auvinen talked about the victory at Hellas Verona and the upcoming game against Napoli. The Finnish defender also reflected on her improving partnership with Brazilian centre back Kathellen Sousa.

True champions are globally recognised for what they are. They belong to everyone. The main man of our podcast was just that. A unique player, an idol of a generation and a true football icon. A champion with a capital C who, despite serious injuries,
had the strength to come back and leave his mark on the game both for club and country.
Humble and down to earth, he was the ultimate number 10, who repaid the faith shown in him by showcasing his full array of talent. In just two words: Roberto Baggio.

You can still be a number ten even if the shirt number on your back says otherwise, as Youri Djorkaeff knows all too well. The Frenchman donned the number six jersey during his days at Inter, as he did for the French national side and earlier in his career at Paris Saint Germain. But he was a number six with all the trappings of a great number ten, a player of innate elegance, class, and technique. A World Cup winner and European champion, our poster boy for the 1997-98 season ticket campaign, a musician, an Inter ambassador and above all a free spirit. Put simply: Youri Djorkaeff!

From the Ajax academy to Real Madrid and - in just a couple of days - from Linate airport to San Siro to play the derby against AC Milan as Inter’s newest number 10. Wesley Sneijder’s arrival was the icing on the cake helping a great team - created by José Mourinho – become the perfect team, ready to write its name in the history books.

From Razgrad to Cologne: all 15 of Inter's goals on their way to the final in Germany, narrated by our commentator Thomas Lawrence.

A born leader driven to win, Lothar Matthaus is without a doubt a number 10 that broke the mould. He was not – as most number 10s are often defined – the most skilful player in the team. But like all number tens, he possessed a vital quality: charisma. And thanks to that, along with his strength and leadership, Matthaus inspired Inter against the odds to the Scudetto in 1989 and the UEFA Cup in 1991. In between, there was World Cup glory in 1990 with West Germany. His achievements and personal qualities ensure Lothar Matthaus is still revered by nerazzurri fans to this day.

Christian Eriksen and Victor Moses talk about life in the bubble in Düsseldorf, the Europa League campaign ahead of the final in Cologne against Sevilla, their pre-match routines ahead of big games, and how football sounds in empty stadiums.
