AC Milan remembers Fiorentina, the only winner in Europe: “The English were already formidable then”

Although Fiorentina were the only European team to reach all UEFA competition finals, they have only won once, the 1960/61 European Cup Winners’ Cup. Sixty-two years later, Italiano and his guys can repeat that unforgettable victory over the Glasgow Rangers, which, exclusively for Tuttomercatoweb.com, was remembered by the protagonist of that double confrontation, Louis Milan scored in both the first and second legs: “Those were great moments, I was proud to be part of this team. The success was unexpected, the English teams are as strong today as they were then, and we knew that we were challenging an opponent whom he had not lost at home for several years. It was, of course, a difficult game, but we went there knowing about our strength, we suffered in front of 82,000 spectators who charged them to the sound of songs from the first to the ninetieth … Bedlam. We were good, they led the race, they put a lot of pressure on us. We were a bit more technical overall, but we had to take on that responsibility.”
