Emanuelson: Abbiati was amazing and I can only applaud him

Urby Emanuelson - Milan
Urby Emanuelson has taken the time to praise Christian Abbiati in the wake of AC Milan's hard-fought 3-2 Champions League Group C win over Zenit St Petersburg on Wednesday.

The experienced goalkeeper pulled off a number of superb saves to help the Rossoneri to the full three points, and the former Ajax man feels the 35-year-old was extraordinary.

"Abbiati was amazing I don't know what he has been eating! He was our captain today, and the way he played all I can do is applaud him," the Dutchman was quoted as saying on the Uefa website.

"Today was really important as we drew our first game with Anderlecht: we could not afford to lose here. We are really happy with the victory. We worked as a team and it was a great result.

"We started well but after we had gone 2-0 up, Zenit got stronger and stronger. Their scoring right at the end of the first half was bad for us, but it was good we won in the end."
