Happy birthday, O Fenômeno

MILANO - His arrival revolutionised Italian football, and he made all Nerazzurri fans fall madly in love with him. Ronaldo became an Inter player in the summer of 1997 and went on to score 59 times in 99 appearances. In addition to his goals, Inter fans got to enjoy countless dazzling moments from one of the biggest talents to have played the game.

The match that transformed him into a legend was undoubtedly the 1998 UEFA Cup final against Lazio, during which "O Fenômeno" scored one of the most memorable and iconic goals in the history of football. It was just one of many magic pieces of play that allowed him to become the first striker to be inducted into the Inter Hall of Fame.
