MILAN – This is what Riccardo Saponara had to say to the Milan Channel earlier:"I felt good against Livorno. It was only a brief appearance, but it was important to manage the result in the final stages of the match and finish the game in the best manner possible. The negative period is behind us and the values of this squad have come through. The league table didn’t do us justice. Many happy returns to Kakà, he’s a class player. He’s great for the team with all his experience and his commitment to the side is still alive despite everything that he has won. He’s got lots of experience and he’s excellent in demonstrating his quality out on the pitch.”
