Italian Soccer Serie A   congratulates Italian footballer and Ex AC MILAN Captain Paolo Maldini for his outstanding career recognized by UEFA President Michel Platini with a special award. 

I  was so happy and crying while watching the UEFA Champions League Group Stage Draw on Thursday, August 27, 2009.  Guys, Michel Platini presenting the special award to Capitano Maldini.  My tears were of joy, pride of our footballer, a living legend, an icon. Platini also asked the public present to make a standing ovation for the historic Rossoneri captain. 
I gladly stand up too and give my ovation to Maldini ... my capitano rossonero.
