Milan defender Massimo Oddo revealed how their season turned around on that historic night in Munich, when they thumped Bayern 2-0.
Before the second leg in Munich I was talking to Massimo Ambrosini and we said if we won that, then we would win the Champions League," revealed Oddo.
"Luckily we were right.
"It has certainly been a fantastic year when I have won the World Cup and the Champions League. I could not have asked for better!
"To be perfectly honest, I don’t entirely feel the World Cup was ‘mine’ as I only played around 20 minutes, but I was always ready and tried to make myself useful.
"It was a wonderful experience."
The former Lazio man then thanked his Milan teammates for making him feel at home, despite only having arrived in January.
"I must thank the Coach and my teammates for helping me to settle immediately," he said.
"It is not easy to join a big club mid-season and learn their system. I must also thank Lazio, as if I am here now it is at least partly because of that side."
The celebrations, however, had left the right-back with a scar. "I’ve lost my winner’s medal", he revealed. "I’ve got to find it again or get them to make me another one!"
