The 2004–05 season was Football Club Internazionale Milano's 96th in existence and 89th consecutive season in the top flight of Italian football.

Season overview

The summer of 2004 saw Inter choose a new coach, Roberto Mancini coming from Lazio.[1][2] Inter started the season qualifying for the Champions League group phase,[3] but also collected many draws in the league.[4][5][6][7][8]

Inter, achieved better results in cups,[9][10] made a known comeback (3–2) in a match against Sampdoria, scoring all goals in the last six minutes.[11] The derby with Milan was lost 1–0 which broke a positive streak, in May 2004.[12] the rivals also knocked Inter out of the Champions League, tournament in which - during the previous two-legs - Mancini's squad had been beaten by reigning champions Porto.[13][14] Inter achieved a third-place finish in the league.[15] The win of the Coppa Italia final against Roma, 3–0 on aggregate, closed the season.[16][17][18]
