Engraved in the memory of Alessandro Nesta There is certainly the defeat in the Champions League final by Liverpool in 2005, as well as the months that followed. In an interview given by Milan’s legendary stopper, he described how the Rossoneri changing rooms lived at that time.
“We believed in the first half that we could break them up, we were hot, but … we got cold. If we celebrated in the locker room? No! An idiot from the other group used to say that. I don’t even know his name. We knew we were too far away. Do you know who kept them? Gerard. It was everywhere, it’s a beast. In the second half we conceded a goal, we didn’t understand how we conceded the second goal. At 3-3 we started again, Dudek made one shockI don’t know how she did it. The respected shot from a meter distance, raised his hand and the ball went so far. Then we went to the penalty shootout and lost. Everything went wrong. I executed a penalty on the super cap and scored against Tzitzionne. After that they didn’t trust me anymore. When we went to Constantinople I offered to perform again but The coach didn’t let me shoot it“, He said initially and added:
“No one spoke in the locker room, no one dared. We were with our families, we went to eat and there was silence … We were all dead. Rino wanted to leave in the summer, but Galliani. Anyway we were all in depression. Throughout the summer we were in the summer for that half a second that You open your eyes When you wake up I said, “It’s not possible, come on it is not true.” We were a powerful group of Italians, we told ourselves that it shouldn’t end like that. Maldini said the most correct words, without speaking too much: ‘Let’s pick up the sleeves, we start again” Reno was… dead, must have been self -contained all summer. It was bad. But in the end it was recharged. He gave us the advice. Gave two kicks and started training. He was right in this case too. Paulo, Reno, Andrea, Abro were right and we started again“
