An Emotional Comeback
The words of Franco Baresi, the historic captain of AC Milan, resonate in the hearts of Rossoneri fans. Last night, at San Siro Stadium, we had the privilege of seeing him walk alongside Beppe Bergomi, his historical rival in the derbies. Two great athletes, one a symbol of Milan and the other of Inter, shared a special moment in front of an enthusiastic crowd and on a global stage.
The Captain’s Words
Baresi, visibly emotional, shared his feelings in an interview with Repubblica. “Carrying the Olympic torch was the greatest emotion of my sporting life. My legs were shaking,” he declared, a statement that takes on profound meaning considering his long battle with illness. Despite this, the great captain is doing better, and this event symbolizes a rebirth.
The Support of the Fans
Returning to San Siro with the torch in hand, in front of a warm audience, must have been an indescribable experience. “No one knew that Bergomi and I would walk together. How am I? The worst is over. Being an athlete helped me fight, and my body allowed me to withstand the illness,” Baresi added, expressing gratitude for the support from fans.
Wishes for a Bright Future
We wish Baresi the best for the future, as he continues to receive medical check-ups for his health. His figure remains a beacon for all Milan fans, reminding us of the importance of unity and strength in challenging times.
