MILAN - There are people who were around when Inter was born and had the chance to love the team right from the start: Maria Radaelli, the oldest-living woman in Italy and the second oldest in Europe, is 113 years old today.
On 9 March 1908 Maria was a little girl who would celebrate her 9th birthday less than a month later, having been born on 3 April 1899 in Inzago. Young she may have been but her heart was already big and her passion for our colours began immediately. And so it has continued all her life. Even today, one of her main interests is following the team, and she still gets upset after a defeat and rejoices after victory.
A loyal and passionate supporter, she now lives in Novate Milanese, a town that is celebrating the event today. At the Town Hall, she will be presented with a special plaque by the first citizen.
Bedy Moratti will also be also present to wish Maria the most affectionate greetings on this special day on behalf of president Massimo Moratti, the team and everyone at Inter.
