Deco: 'We want to win it just as much as the Champions'

Once again breaking the myth. Deco is a famous midfielder that plays for Barcelona. In 2006, Barcelona won the Champions League, thus giving them the right to play in the 2006 Club World's Cup.

In an interview before the finals against Internacional of Brasil, Deco was asked what it would mean to Barcelona to win the FIFA Club World Cup.

In Europe it's seen as a fairly important competition if you win. But if you lose, then it's really important. (Smiles) The fact is, we want to win it just as much as the Champions League. It's important to the club because we've never won it, and if we win tomorrow we'll go down in the club's history.

Otra vez rompiendo el mito. Deco es un famoso volante que juega para el Barcelona. En 2006, Barcelona gano la Champions League, dandole la oportunidad para jugar en el Mundial de Clubes.

En un entrevista antes de la final ante el Internacional de Brasil, Deco fue preguntando lo que significa para Barcelona ganar este Mundial de Clubes.

En Europa le dan una importancia relativa a este torneo cuando se gana, pero cuando se pierde, pasa a ser importantísimo! (sonríe). La verdad es que nosotros deseamos ganarlo tanto como una Champions League, porque es importante para la institución que no lo tiene, y si lo hacemos, entraremos en la historia del club.

Uff, the worst day was when we lost the Intercontinental against Boca Juniors. There was a dinner ready for the players and fans, but instead it was just the players there.

Kaka, Milan striker and winner of the 2007 Balon D'Or on December 3rd:

I must admit I have a burning desire to win the Club World Cup, especially with it being my second crack at this title. I first played in it in 2003 - the format was different then - and I haven't forgotten our defeat that year to Boca Juniors. This time, my team-mates and I will be hugely motivated to see that things work out right for us. I'm sure we are up to the challenge.

Gennaro Gatusso, midfielder of AC Milan on December 15th:

Playing in a final is one thing, but we've promised ourselves that we're not going home without the trophy. The memories of our last match against them are still very much there for most of us, so we want to rewrite the history books and set the record straight.

Clarence Seedorf, midfielder of AC Milan on December 14th:

This is a big match and we're going to prepare for it in the right way. We always respect all of our opponents, but when it comes to Boca, some things are still fresh in the memory so we know exactly what we've got to do...

Claudio Casagrande, columnist of the Diario Tuttosport of Italy:

Milan quiere vengarse del 2003, aunque se dijo que no. Ya se tomó revancha con Liverpool en la Champions y si lo hace con Boca sería completo. Prepararon este partido con mucho tiempo, es el objetivo principal del año. Lo de los títulos es importante también, Milan le da importancia. Porque quiere vencer a Boca para ser el más ganador del mundo. Y aunque el equipo italiano es superior, Boca es Boca. Y si Russo es inteligente, debería salir a esperar. Esos planteos siempre complican al Milan.
