- Defenders I tried to avoid? I'll name three, but I don't know in what order to put them: Javier Zanetti, Lilian Thuram and Alessandro Nesta. It's a great three. My dribbling was always the same, but when I faced one of them, it was more intense. I watched a lot of footage, and then, in the first five minutes of the game, I figured out how I could deceive them, trying to find a weakness," Shevchenko was quoted as saying by Football Italia.
