Season

Inter could line-up notable attacking players, such as the new Fanna in add to Altobelli and Rummenigge.^[2] Despite his good performances in Europe^[3]^[4] the Italian league was disappointed, forcing the club to replace Castagner with Mario Corso.^[5]

The coach, renamed God's left foot, was not able to get more a sixth position but reached the semi-finals of UEFA Cup, being defeated by Real Madrid for the second time in row.^[6]^[7] The side could take part to European cups for 1986–87 season only thank to the fact that Roma won Coppa Italia, leaving a spot for UEFA Cup.^[8]
