The 1997 UEFA Cup final was a two-legged football match contested between Schalke 04 of Germany and Internazionale of Italy. The tie was a tight affair, with each leg being won 1âÂÂ0 by the home-team. After 210 minutes of football, the tie was eventually settled on penalties, with Schalke winning 4âÂÂ1 at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. It was to be the last UEFA Cup final to be played over two legs, future finals being one-off games at a neutral ground.
