My best has to be for Barcelona against Villarreal in 2006 - that is the one I am asked most about, and it is the one I am most proud of. Xavi chipped the ball to me, I chested it down, twisted and hit an overhead kick. It was the final goal in a 4-0 win.

I am what I am thanks to my mother, my father, my brother, my sister... because they have given me everything. The education I have is thanks to them.

Football is about joy. It's about dribbling. I favour every idea that makes the game beautiful. Every good idea has to last.

I have never imagined doing anything other than football, but now, thinking about it coldly, if I hadn't been a footballer, I would have been a musician.

I feel very privileged to be asked to be featured in another FIFA Soccer release, ... The game gives me the opportunity to play the matches I want to play every day of the week -- even while away from the field.

God gives gifts to everyone, some can write, some can dance. He gave me the skill to play football and I am making the most of it.

Paolo Maldini and John Terry are two of the toughest men I have met on the field.
