It's now or never for Inter: Simone Inzaghi's underappreciated side must shake off Serie A title collapse and earn Champions League glory before it's too late

After the 2-0 win over Feyenoord at De Kuip on March 5, Simone Inzaghi was asked by a journalist if Inter were targeting a double. "A treble," the coach interrupted, holding up three fingers on his right hand.

Inzaghi was smiling as he spoke, but it was a serious and legitimate objective for Inter. At the time, they had one foot in the last eight of the Champions League, were already through to the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia, and occupying top spot in Serie A.

Now, though, there's a very real fear that the Nerazzurri will finish the season empty-handed, which would be another bitter blow for an long-underappreciated side that may not get another chance to claim the Champions League trophy they so richly deserve.
