About this listen
In 1908, inside a smoky Milanese tavern, a group of rebels broke away from AC Milan to form a new kind of football club, one that welcomed players from anywhere. They called it Internazionale, because, as founder Giorgio Muggiani declared, “we are brothers of the world.”
This episode of Tactical Touch explores the radical founding of Inter Milan and the philosophy that made it different from the start, and dangerous under Fascism. You’ll hear how Inter:
- Split from AC Milan over a ban on foreign players
- Sparked the Derby della Madonnina, a rivalry steeped in class, culture, and politics
- Was nearly erased by Mussolini’s regime, renamed Ambrosiana, and forced to play under a different identity
- Resisted from the stands as fans kept chanting “Forza Inter”
- Rose again with icons like Giuseppe Meazza, La Grande Inter, and the treble-winning team of 2010
You’ll meet artists, generals, fascists, and revolutionaries — and uncover how one club came to symbolize resistance, reinvention, and global identity in Italian football.
🎧 If you believe football is more than just a game, this is your story.
