The former AC Milan midfielder Massimo Ambrosini, who is now a pundit for DAZN network, spoke to Milan TV and had these words to say:
"George Weah? He hadn't arrived at Milan very young, so he had arrived at the height of physical and mental maturity. Then he had found the right environment for his personality and he had found Marco Simone who welcomed him both in the team and at home, because he lived with him in the first period. An extraordinary player."
On Weah's Coast to Coast goal, he said:
"There was also disbelief at the time. Then he hugged a gentleman who was working there and they interviewed him the next day. He didn't know who to hug, he was exhausted and he hugged this guy. A sensational player, he was able to score in the penalty area as well as take the ball and score goals. At that moment he was really at a sensational level of omnipotence."
Ambrosini on former teammate Andriy Shevchenko:
"Unlike Weah, he had arrived at a different time in his life. George was a man, he came to a club with a different physical and mental strength. Sheva was a little boy, he had gained experience in his country. He was entering a new reality, a new city. George came from Paris, Sheva from Kiev. He was a very shy boy who also approached the Italian language with all the difficulties involved. He came with great expectations. Perhaps Sheva was markedly ambitious: he had extraordinary tenacity and mental strength despite his youth. The fire is inside him. He had habits of life and education, he is a composed boy and it is difficult for him to completely express what he has inside, but what he has inside has allowed him to be what he was."
On Andriy Shevchenko coast to coast goal against Bari:
"He built his way along at Milan. He came with little top-level football, so what he did, he built it at Milan. He has constantly increased the qualities that brought him to Milan. He was someone, who if he sensed there was the possibility of scoring, in one way or another, he managed the way to do it."
Ambrosini on Kakà's coast to coast goal against Celtic:
"That match there was a closed and physical match. The task of those playing behind him was to give him these balls, then he'd take care of them. Mine wasn't an assist, it was a simple pass: 98% of that goal is his alone. Champions are made for that. The champion solves the game for you in a moment like this, without many schemes or many details. The champion is the one who takes that responsibility there and turns the game over for you."
