I had a few saves and I think Petter Kluivert scored in the 88th minute.
From that moment on, the sheer excitement you feel, is this really going to happen?
Is it really true?
And when the referee blew the whistle, then bam.
Yeah, it felt really as the academy players with Reiziger, Frank de Boer, Rijkaard before Seedorf, Edgar Davies, Ronald de Boer.
So we had five or six coming from the academy into a Champions League final and it felt like France, felt like
We were doing it together.
We had a fantastic coach, Louis van Gaal.
He was technically brilliant for us, explained a lot, and with the experience of Danny Blind at the back, Frank Rijkaard, they played Orr with the two at the back, or sometimes Rijkaard went to the midfield to make sure that Liepmanen could go forward.
We could play with that to win the team and have the excitement and have the celebration in Amsterdam on the canals with a boat.
It was just, yeah.
Fantastic.
True.
To play against an English team in the Champions League final feels a bit strange, because the charm of European football is playing teams that you don't really know.
I think Chelsea, Man Utd, we knew each other that well.
On that part, going into extra time, going to penalties, I lost in 96 against Juventus.
We lost it on penalties, so I thought, this is not going to happen again.
So at the moment, when Anelka stepped up,
I went to the right, ball went to my side, it hit your fist.
Yeah, that moment, those three, four seconds was electric for myself.
