Milan star: Cristiano can be stoppedAC Milan star defender Alessandro Nesta says he is not concerned about facing Manchester United livewire Cristiano Ronaldo in the upcoming semi-final of the Champions League.
“I faced him two years ago and at the moment he really is at the top of his game,” said Nesta.
“It will be tough, but you can stop Cristiano Ronaldo with organisation and by closing him down immediately.
“We watched the Roma game and that night everything went United’s way, scoring seven goals with as many attempts. Those are special evenings, but in the first leg you could not see such a vast difference between the sides, so we will go there looking for the win.”
He added: “We have many world class players here who are going strong, for example such as Kaka, so we have important factors working in our favour,”
“It will be difficult to play at Old Trafford, as they have a remarkable crowd that gets fired up easily. This clash is worth a great deal, as our team has been criticised and penalised from all sides, so reaching another Final would be a marvellous feeling.”
