"Milan" official website announced that 38-year-old Christian Abbiati will play his last professional football game today at the "San Siro" stadium. Former Italian national team goalkeeper has been with "Milan" since 1998. From 2005 to 2008, C. Abbiati was loaned out to Turin Juventus, Torino, and Madrid Atletico clubs, but most of his career was spent at the legendary "Milan". C. Abbiati for the second consecutive season is content with the role of a backup goalkeeper, as he had to give way on the field to Diego Lopez and now to the young Gianluigi Donnarumma. This season, the goalkeeper appeared in goal six times, and today he will be allowed to play his last game. In total, the goalkeeper spent 15 seasons in the Milan team. C. Abbiati played 588 games in his entire career, became Italian champion three times, and lifted the UEFA Champions League trophy once. C. Abbiati will face a serious challenge in his last career game. At 21:45, "Roma" will enter the battle at the "San Siro" stadium.
