AC Milan defender Cristian Zapata: At least the new owner will remember my name!

AC Milan defender Cristian Zapata admits he still doesn't know how he managed his derby equaliser.

Zapata scored in the 97th minute to earn a 2-2 draw with Inter Milan last weekend.

“I don't even know how I got it, I just saw the ball coming in," Zapata explained to Milan TV.

“Maybe I got it with my shin, a bit of my foot… a bit of everything. These are the games where you fight more and I was fired-up.

“I think we finished a great game in a beautiful way. Every player dreams of this, I'm very lucky and very happy.

“Yonghong Li? At least he'll remember my name!"
