AC Milan goalkeeper Christian Abbiati made a successful comeback in last night's Coppa Italia defeat to Udinese.
Abbiati hasn't played for ten months due to a knee injury.
"I was focused, I've missed 10 months, so I wanted to play and return to the San Siro, I'm sorry for the defeat," said Abbiati.
"It is not easy to recover from an operation so delicate. Watching the games on TV is even more frustrating but thanks to friends, family and lots of work done at Milanello I managed to come back.
"I have a good relationship with Leonardo. I'm available, everyone here knows."
