To embarrass Europe? The Champions League runner-up is out of the top 16 of the Club World Cup! It creates a 56-year shame, and the four major seasons are empty

In a focus game of the 1/8 final of the Club World Cup that ended in the early morning of July 1, Serie A giant Inter Milan lost to the Brazilian League team Fruminense 0-2 and missed the quarterfinals.

In this game, Inter Milan lost the ball in the beginning, but they have never been able to catch it for a long time since then. Lautaro and Dimarco hit the post one after another. In stoppage time, Inter Milan, who was impatient, scored another goal by Fruminense, completely stifled the hope of promotion. In this way, the runner-up of the Champions League last season returned home early in the Club World Cup.

, and Inter Milan inadvertently created two major shame records. They are the first European team to be eliminated by non-European clubs in the intercontinental knockout round after Chelsea in 2012.

Secondly, Inter Milan lost to non-European teams in the past 56 years since 1969, ending its five consecutive unbeaten record against non-European teams (4 wins and 1 draw). It has to be said that Inter Milan did "disgrace" the five major European leagues this time.

With the upset Club World Cup and missed the quarterfinals, Inter Milan ended the frustrated 2024-25 season. This season, Inter Milan has no championships. The defeat in Serie A defending title was overwhelmed by Naples, and the Italian Super Cup and Italian Cup were both eliminated by Milan, a arch-rival in the same city. Although the Champions League reached the final, it eventually lost to Paris Saint-Germain 0-5, becoming the "pavement stone" for the latter to win the Champions League for the first time.

Not only that, Inter Milan's meritorious coach Inzaghi also "abandoned his ship and fled" to the Saudi League to hunt for gold in June because of the temptation of high salary. With the new coach Ziwo not showing his outstanding coaching talent for the time being, Inter Milan's prospects for the new season are difficult to be optimistic.
