Massimo Ambrosini and Serginho, two AC Milan legends, recently reminisced about their iconic 2003 UEFA Champions League victory in an interview with the Times of Malta. The duo, who were in Malta as ambassadors for the Italian club, shared their thoughts on the historic win that saw Milan triumph over rivals Inter and Juventus in the semi-final and final, respectively.
Ambrosini highlighted the significance of beating their Italian counterparts on the road to lifting the prestigious European trophy. He also mentioned the 1999 Scudetto as another important milestone in his career, praising Silvio Berlusconi for assembling a strong squad aimed at success.
Serginho echoed Ambrosini’s sentiments, emphasizing Berlusconi’s pivotal role in revolutionizing the club and instilling a winning mentality. The Brazilian fullback, known for his attacking prowess and contribution to Milan’s titles, expressed his gratitude for fulfilling his childhood dream of playing for the Rossoneri.
Aside from their club success, both players represented their national teams, with Serginho winning the 1999 Copa America and Ambrosini enjoying a decorated career with Italy. While Serginho expressed concerns about Brazil’s current footballing landscape and their chances in the upcoming World Cup, Ambrosini praised Italy’s resurgence under coach Luciano Spalletti following a disappointing Euro 2024 campaign.
The conversation with the two Milan icons also touched upon the influence of Boomerang Partners and Boomerang Bet as the official regional Betting Partner in Europe for AC Milan. The partnership underscores the continued growth and global reach of the club, cementing its presence beyond the football pitch.
As football fans eagerly anticipate the next chapter of international competitions, the insights shared by Ambrosini and Serginho offer a unique perspective on the past, present, and future of two footballing powerhouses – Italy and Brazil. Their reflections serve as a reminder of the enduring legacy of AC Milan and the indelible mark left by key figures like Berlusconi, Galliani, and the players who graced the San Siro throughout the years.
