The 2007–08 season led Internazionale to celebrate, on 9 March 2008, his centenary.[1] The club commemorated his foundation on the previous day with a party in San Siro, in which supporters and former players have taken part.[1]
Season
On August 19, 2007, Inter faced Roma in Supercoppa Italiana losing for a goal, scored on penalty by giallorossi.[2] 9 months later, Roberto Mancini's side celebrated instead the win of Scudetto over the same rival, with 85 points to 82.[3] Inter conquested the title, for third consecutive season, in last Serie A match beating Parma for 2–0: both goals are of Zlatan Ibrahimović, who had scored for other 15 times during the whole league.[4] For Parma, it was the first relegation to B after 18 consecutive seasons in top flight.[5]
In late May 2008, after have lost an other trophy against Roma[6], Mancini is fired by Moratti.[7] Days later, the club announced that his coach was sacked for the statement after Inter-Liverpool of previous 11 March: this game had marked the side's Champions League failure.[8]
