The Dutch midfielder won the Champions League, Scudetto and and Coppa Italia with Inter.
"I won three titles this season, and now I lost the fourth title tonight," the 26-year-old said post-match to Reuters. "I think it is a pity, but we can be proud of our achievements.
"At this moment, I cannot think very well. We just lost the World Cup final.
