Ryan Giggs on the official UEFA website:

‘I watched the AC Milan against RC Deportivo La Coruña game
on television and was very impressed by the Italians. They
were my tip to win the competition before this week and that
4-1 win has only backed up what I thought already. I cannot
see them not reaching the final now.

‘But, I must admit that Milan were a different side to how I
expected them to be. Last year they were defensively solid,
but I saw a much more attacking side to them this time. They
uncharacteristically gave Deportivo chances, but when you
have the forward talent at their disposal they will always
score plenty. I had seen Kaká play for Brazil a couple of
times but did not know a lot about him. He looked a great
player on Tuesday night. But it is not just him - Milan have
goalscorers throughout their line-up, which is why I am
sticking with them as my tip to win it.’
