I not only provide lineups/goalscorers/etc, but I also try to add anecdotes, facts and trivia pertaining to the match in question.
Ma quanto era scarso Abbiati
Barcelona becomes Milan or Bayern when playing them. Milan struggled a lot with Barcelona, which is without any doubt the best team ever
lol, holy shit! So many weird things about this game that I don't even know where to start xD
First of all, I've been a HUGE Milan fan in those years and you might expect me to remember such an interesting game. But the weird thing is that I don't remember shit from this game. I don't even know…. I mean…. pfff, I only remember Shevchenko and Maldini from this game. Everyone else is blurry as fuck despite of Albertini scoring two goals lol … Which brings me to the next point I want to make:
So, 6 goals in this game and the most beautiful goals have not been scored by a striker xD …. Moreover, they've been scored by someone who I never liked anyway (Albertini). Just one big juicy fucking LOL xD
Thirdly, 3 free kicks goals. This is nuts. I don't think I've ever watched a UCL game after this one where 3 free kicks have been transformed
Fourthly, Rivaldo has scored by slipping the ball UNDER the wall instead of over the wall WAY before Dinho doing it against Chelsea if I remember correctly?? Anyway, the point is that I thought that Ronaldinho has first scored a free kick goal by kicking the ball under the wall, but apparently Rivaldo has done it before him 🙂
Then, who the fuck has Barca's captain been in this game??? I can't figure out for the life of me. I have seen Puyol in these highlights, and I've also seen Xavi and none of them were wearing the armband. So, who's been wearing it then?????? Fucking weird stuff, I'm telling you.
And speaking of weird stuff…. who the fuck is Barca's goalkeeper. As a HUGE football fan in the early 2000s I would have been able to tell you the starting lineups of all big clubs in Europe's biggest leagues without even flinching. And yet, right now I can't even recognize Barca's goalkeeper, and I'm too lazy to check Wikipedia xD
Last but not least, where are Cafu, Rui Costa, Weah, and other big names that Milan have had in those years?? I only see Maldini, and Shevchenko on the pitch (ok, Gattuso and Ambrosini, too but I never liked those players, so I'm not counting them xD)…. But other than Maldini and Sheva, a total ZERO in the Milan's squad. I mean, Albertini, Coco, Jose Mari?? Pfff, give me a break! Who the fuck are these guys?
Anyway, I enjoyed re-watching this game (I assume I have watched it live when it had been played back then, but I don't remember a thing about it xD) … and remembering some of the players (Petit, Cocu, Reiziger, Rivaldo, Bierhoff, etc. Good ol' times when AC Milan has existed in European football and when Spanish tards would cover in fear whenever they'd play Milan or Juve…. Good ol' times indeed 🙂
Football from another planet…
rivaldo vs albertini che partita, spero che il milan torni in europa e da protagonista ,lo merita vedere san siro gremito è uno spettacolo
Ho la pelle d'oca. Fu la prima volta che andai a San Siro è ancora adesso mi viene in mente quando entrai dalla parte della curva merdazzura e dopo aver sentito il boato vidi la sud che esplodeva. Uno spettacolo FORZA MILAN?⚫
bbbilan????????????????
Pero que malito era Dutruel
3:35 2-2 del FCB, trallazo de zurda de Rivaldo en un tiro libre
2:18 2-1 del Milan, trallazo de derecha de Albertini en un tiro libre
same season, same champion's: barcellona – Milan 0 2 Coco, Bierhoff!
um grande clássico.
