# 1986–87 Inter Milan season
## Season summary

Longing for redemption after a 5–years title absence, Inter bet on Giovanni Trapattoni, winner of 6 Scudetti sitting on Juventus' bench. 1986 summer also brought in Milan players such as Daniel Passarella and Gianfranco Matteoli. Autumnal results presented Inter like a competitive team, at least Rummenigge had to give up due to injuries. Trapattoni had already reach UEFA Cup's quarter-finals where he met Goteborg drawing (without goals) the first leg. It forced Inter to win the second but, after gaining the 1–0 with an own goal, team took the equalizer: away goals rule caused Swedish's victory. Season ended with a third place, behind Napoli and coach's former club.
