Inter Milan returned home to a subdued and somber welcome after enduring the heaviest defeat in Champions League final history. The Nerazzurri were thrashed 5-0 by Paris Saint-Germain in Munich, marking a painful end to their European campaign. Goals from Achraf Hakimi, Desire Doue, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Senny Mayulu sealed PSG’s historic maiden Champions League title while handing Inter a night to forget.
Upon their return to Milan via Malpensa Airport on Sunday, only a single fan, identified as Marco, was present to greet the team. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Marco stood alone on the tarmac shouting, “I’m the only idiot here, but they still deserve applause,” capturing both heartbreak and unwavering loyalty in a single sentence.
The rest of the squad’s arrival was described as “silent,” with no players stopping to speak as they moved from the plane to the team coach. While a handful of other fans eventually arrived, they came too late to catch more than a glimpse of the squad boarding the bus. The only visible reaction came from defender Francesco Acerbi, who gave a quiet nod. Shouts aimed at head coach Simone Inzaghi and forward Marcus Thuram went unanswered, further reflecting the team's deflated mood after the crushing loss.
Inter's performance and the resulting defeat will surely prompt questions about the future of the squad and its leadership. While the team had a strong run up to the final, the scale of the loss has cast a shadow over what was otherwise a commendable European campaign.
For now, the image of one lone fan standing in support as the team returned home speaks volumes — a poignant reminder of football’s emotional extremes and the deep loyalty it inspires, even in the darkest of times.
