Today, Maestro Pirlo is playing his last game. Thank you to everyone who gave it to football.
"Leader" Pirlo stops time by sovereign decision.
Last night, Andrea Pirlo saw him as a professional football player, when he took part as a substitute in the 90th minute with his current club, New York City.
Without going into many details, I will come up with him personally to read some of the details of his life.
"I never feel pressure, I woke up on July 9, 2006, I played Playstation and then I won the World Cup!"
16-year-old Andrea Pirlo, his first term in Percyia:
"I was playing against 21 players .. 10 of my team and 11 of the opponent .. No one wants to pass the ball to me .. After I realized that they deliberately to ignore me out of envy cried in front of all"
"Pirlo, you're not like them. You're the best of all. Do you want to be a ball player? Well, go and take the ball out of them, these scoundrels do not deserve it. The robbers of dreams. Come on, Pirlo."
Then I decided to respond in my way .. If 10 players can not register, I will do it on my own .. I took the ball and tears cover my eyes .. I go beyond all .. My comrades before the opponents .. I was not trying to be Maradona .. Only I want to consider my dignity.
Are they bad children? No ... they are afraid of their dreams, I was the man they see smashing their future, not my fault I tried to help them, but they refused to leave behind me.
"Do you know, even today I still think I'm not a unique player, I just have a broader panoramic view, some say I'm like Rivera, well I've never seen it but I think I have my own way"
Pirlo has a dream of joining Real Madrid or Barcelona
In 2006, when the press started to talk about the possibility of a second-rate AC Milan, I had to think, so I got a call from Fabio Capello, the Real Madrid coach, so I was tempted to play in Santiago Bernabeu. Well, I needed less than a minute to agree!
But Galliani had another opinion. After I stayed for days dreaming of Spain and landing my plane to Madrid, he called me. "Andrea will not go anywhere. You will sign this contract for 5 years. Write the number you want." Follow my instinct And signed .. At the end of the season I won the Champions League!
But before I moved to Juventus, I tried Roma. It was an important offer of my debt but I did not trust the new American owner. My other dream was Barcelona!
The team he often chose at Playstation when I challenged Alessandro Nesta every day.
August 25, 2010 .. Camp Nou Milan faces Barcelona and all eyes towards Ibrahimovic, when I received an invitation before leaving the stadium of Pep Guardiola.
"I want to be together, Pirlo, we're really strong, but you're going to be the cherry, you're a hero," he said in an elegant Italian language (Pep spent a period of his career as a Roma player).
"I spoke with the Milan administration but they refused. I will not stop. I just need your support. You know that Barcelona does not buy stars. We have La Lamia. You are the only bastard."
A penalty kick in front of England .. Euro 2012
Not as Totti did in 2000 against the Netherlands when he told Di Baggio that he would carry out the "spoon". It was a moment of improvisation against Joe Hart. I thought, "Either you are a Totti or you're a fool." She recorded coldly and cast doubt on Hart. Question by my colleagues: Pirlo Are you stupid ?!
The coach who surprised him
I worked with a lot of coaches, more than surprised Antonio Ante Conte, in his first simple words dominated me and all Juventus players, I felt that I was in front of a demon .. If his hair is false, the devil inside is quite real in a strange tone talking, "Everything is wrong, to get back Juventus real must We are working, and this is not a request, it is something. "
A history we will never forget
Today, we are celebrating Andrea Pirlo, the legend of Italian football, the star of Juventus and AC Milan ... the winner of the World Cup and the Champions League twice, in addition to the Italian league, Italian Cup, the Italian Super and the Club World Cup.
Is Pirlo the best player in the world at any time of his career .. The answer may not be .. But certainly he is the most important midfielder among the players of his generation.
Football is losing its legends one after the other, after Totti's retirement at the end of last season. Here is Pirlo on his heels. It will be a sad day when Gianluigi Buffon will retire. Then the last chapter of the book will be closed.
Let us always remember this date. November 5, 2017. The day that Pirlo decided to punish us forever.
