DBasia.news – World football legend, Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima still remembers the failure of Inter Milan when winning the Scudetto on May 5, 2002. The incident became a sad moment for Inter Milan. The Serie A title that was in reach, vanished.
Inter Milan has a great chance of grabbing the title in that season. However, the Nerazzurri defeated Lazio 2-4. Meanwhile, Juventus who won 2-0 against host Udinese became champions.
The failure is still imprinted in Ronaldo’s heart. One of the best footballers in history said Inter lost due to their own mistakes.
“After the match against Atalanta, I realized that I had to part with Hector Cuper. However, I must respect him for completing the season,” Ronaldo explained to Del Piero in a question and answer session on Instagram.
“We were beaten on May 5, there is no other reason. As we are still leading the standings towards the last week. Lazio had no interest.”
“Some work ahead of the game, there are a lot of strange things happening. One of them is the rumor that Alessandro Nesta would join.”
Ronaldo thinks the Inter Milan players are overly underestimating Lazio. In fact, Lazio have dangerous players.
“The wound is still imprinted. Moreover, every May 5 people link me to uploads on Instagram with a photo of me crying. They never forget that,” explained Ronaldo.
“Nevertheless, I value every win and loss. In football, the most important is responsibility.”
