8/9/2009- Many birthday wishes to Superpippo who turns 36! But most of all thanks for the infinite emotions you have given us and which, we are sure, you will continue to offer in your ninth consecutive season with the Rossoneri!'I think I can say to the children who dream about goals and football pitches, that the fundamental thing is to love what you do. If you truly love football, destiny repays you. Perhaps that's why football, my sport, has given me unmatchable emotions.' This is what you said after scoring your 300th career goal. It was last March and you, excited as a kid, presented yourself to the cameras to explain the secret behind your eternal youth: the passion, the commitment, the consistency, but especially the infinite love for the green rectangle and the emotions you experience inside it.
Five months have passed since that goal which has projected you even more in Milan's history and Italian football history, in the meantime your goal count has reached 306 and you, a champion, have continued growing, and today your blow out 36 candles. 36 years, many of which spent with a ball at your feet, 36 years with a few very tough moments but which were amply repaid with extraordinary personal and team success. With the Milan shirt you have won everything: a Scudetto, a Coppa Italia, an Italian Supercup, two Champions Leagues, two European Supercups, and one Fifa Club World Cup. With the national team you became a World Champion.
What more to ask from destiny? To continue playing, winning, having fun. Which is what you are doing in your ninth consecutive season as a Rossonero. Which, we can bet, will be full of goals, adrenaline and emotions. An essential ingredient for someone like you.
So, many happy birthday wishes, Champion! Even though you've turned 36, you look 10 years younger on the pitch, we hope you'll score 306 more goals, more or less important ones, but still goals, which you were born to score. But especially thank you for the determination, desire to always be there, and the extraordinary professionalism which have given you tremendous victories and an infinite passion for this sport and this shirt.
Happy birthday Pippo!
