MILAN - From Esteban Cambiasso's official site:
"I'm very touched by the numerous displays of kindness that I have received over the last few days and I'd like to thank all those who offered their support. The other evening at the San Siro I was emotional, and the way I reacted was down to the love I have for my job, and coincided with a tough period for Inter.
Those who know me are aware of what I felt and what I am feeling. They know how hard I've worked throughout my career, on the pitch, to get to where I have, by always putting the interests of the team above my own. So to answer the many criticisms that have been levelled at me of late, I am not afraid to admit that the other night I actually felt a weight lifted off my shoulders – people can no longer say I'm untouchable.
Don't worry, I've already put it behind me and I am certain that it will help me to discover greater strength and motivation. Thanks again for your lovely messages, Cuchu."
