Anderson revealed: "Ferguson looked at me and I told him he could trust me. I knew I could have the opportunity to score a penalty, and spent those minutes thinking about it, until it came my turn. In the decisive moments, the coach likes to have players with great will and personality, which I do not lack.



"In just over one week I have become English champion, champion of Europe and was also summoned to the Brazilian selecao. It is a magic time that I'm enjoying very much."
