Marcelà Desaillyà says Milanââ¬â¢s win over Barcelona on Wednesday reminded him of the 1994 Champions League Final victory.
Desaillyà scored that night as theà Rossonerià beat the Spanish giants 4-0, whereas theà Diavoloà were happy enough with a 2-0 on Wednesday in the first leg of their last 16 tie.
ââ¬ÅI have to thank boss Massimiliano Allegri for doing an incredible job, for having that kind of discipline,â⬠the Frenchman told Milan Channel.
ââ¬ÅThe players showed the Milan character tonight,â⬠he added. ââ¬ÅIt reminded me of the 4-0 against Barcelona in 1994.
ââ¬ÅTactically and in terms of discipline, the team was perfect with the defence playing high. They pressed players off the ball and they were attentive.ââ¬
Desailly was particularly impressed with the performance of Massimo Ambrosini. ââ¬ÅHe was 17-years-old when he started at Milan and he played a captainââ¬â¢s game tonight.ââ¬
