Ferguson praise for evergreen duo

SIR Alex Ferguson has admitted he was left stunned by AC Milan's evergreen defensive duo Cafu and Paolo Maldini.

Brazilian full-back Cafu covered an incredible amount of ground down the right flank at the San Siro and set up Hernan Crespo for the Rossoneri's goal.

On the other side, Maldini put in a typically solid performance to keep Cristiano Ronaldo quiet - a remarkable feat when you consider the Italian was playing for Milan before Ronaldo was born.

Ferguson said: “Cafu’s performance was important - he must have two hearts the way he keeps going.

“And if Maldini carries on for another four or five years I think I will quit.”

Ferguson had already stated in the pre-match build-up that he believed the winners of this tie could go on to lift the trophy in Istanbul on May 25 - and nothing which happened tonight has dissuaded him from that opinion.

The Scot added: “Yes, I think they are good enough to win the competition - what they have is something special.

“We play a lot of European teams on their own grounds and have to tolerate a lot of histrionics.

“We didn’t get any of that from Milan. They conducted themselves in an impeccable manner.

“That is what makes them a little bit special. They can definitely win the Champions’ League this season.”
