Wesley Sneijder has revealed he is still just as proud today as he was when Inter completed their famous treble by winning the Champions League trophy a decade ago.

“I can only be enormously proud to have raised that cup. Before the final we felt that there was a lot of tension, you saw it on everyone’s face,” he remarked in an interview with the UEFA Champions League programme.

“I remained calm and I told my teammates to approach this game as it were any match. I knew that if we could get Diego Milito into the box, he would have scored and that is exactly what happened.

“The second goal came at a time when we were under great pressure. They were trying to score and we were forced to defend them. We kept them away while we waited for them to make a mistake.

“We broke on a very fast counterattack that involved several players and then Milito scored to make it 2-0. I cannot describe what went through my head at the final whistle. It all seemed like a dream. People were running everywhere and it wad a beautiful moment.

“Now, ten years later, I look back and feel the same pride as I did then. I will never forget that feeling and I still can’t believe I lifted the trophy. We gave everything and pushed ourselves to our limits. I think I would still be just as proud in one hundred years time.”
