Inter will play tomorrow evening in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final against Barcelona, and after drawing in the first leg, they now face a kind of home playoff to reach the final. To win this wonderful trophy, the Nerazzurri will still need two more victories, but against very strong opponents.
In the league, however, Simone Inzaghi’s team is paying for two defeats, against Bologna and Roma, and now finds itself three points behind league leaders Napoli. *La Gazzetta dello Sport* analyzed, data in hand, what the reasons are for why it is so complicated for Italian teams to win these two important trophies in a single season.
The double of winning the league title scudetto and the Champions League has only happened three times in the history of Serie A: twice accomplished by Inter 1965 and 2010 and once by Milan 1994. The explanations given by the *rosea* a nickname for *La Gazzetta dello Sport* can be traced to the difficulty of maintaining quality throughout an entire season, with dozens of matches that each year continue to increase.
With the Club World Cup, Inter will surpass 60 matches in the season. The management of energy and rotation of reserves is also another fundamental issue for being able to win two trophies of this weight, which, despite the 12 Champions Leagues won by Italian teams, has only been achieved, as mentioned, on three occasions.
