Former Milan forward Andriy Shevchenko interviewed with Max Brigante on Radio 105 about his new autobiography "Forza Gentile". The book released last week, and has gained some attention from football fans across the world. The biography covers his whole life, and he spoke in the interview about his days with the red and black.
On the topic of some of his key goals scored for the Rossoneri:
"I recently reviewed the images of the penalty against Juventus, from another camera. You could see my teammates. Nesta was nervous, everyone was trembling. It's nice to get back to those emotions. Now, however, I'm focused on my work so I don't look at past actions,".
On his initial arrival to Milan:
"When I arrived, Milan were a great team. I was very shy. I met with a group of boys, not speaking Italian well, that consisted of Costacurta, Ambrosini, and Albertini, before meeting all the others in Sardinia,".
On being a point of reference:
"When I decided to leave Ukraine, I felt a great responsibility. It was not an easy transition. I could make mistakes and make mistakes, but I didn't make them, I was not afraid in my life. Today I became a coach of the national team for which I became an idol,".
On the meaning of his goal:
"It is a gift that only God can give you. The quality is unique and special."
