Intervju med Pirlo


Andrea, you were with the national team and played an important role, then you came back to Milan and it seemed you would not play after you suffered a knock with the Azzurri, instead you played and again your contribution was decisive.
.

"Yes, it's a period in which I feel well and I hope it can continue as long as possible."
.

Your objective in the Champions League is to bring home the Cup once again?

"Certainly. Winning the Cup remains our primary objective in the Champions League and we must continue playing as we did last night to try and repeat ourselves and win this edition as well."
.

Are there differences between the balls used in the Champions League and those used in Serie A?

"There is a bit of difference. As I hit the free kick yesterday against Benfica I saw that their goalkeeper Quim who was expecting a cross, that's why I tried to hit the ball with effect."
.

Also for the second goal your contribution was fundamental...

"It was useful to have seen the movements of my team mates in advance, then as far as the goal goes, Pippo did well to shoot it in."
.

How do you prepare for games of this type?

"The Coach shows us videotapes of the opponents before the game so we already know something before we come on the pitch. Then aside from training I try to observe the movements of the opponents and gradually you can see better moves during the match. You should always, in any case, show your value on the pitch."
