Intervista a David Trezeguet
- Quattro luglio duemila. Due giorni fa David Trezeguet ha segnato il golden goal per la Francia, battendo gli azzurri nella finale del Campionato europeo di calcio duemila. Oggi ha concesso un'intervista alla Gazzetta dello sport.
- Giornalista: David, com'è stato segnare questo gol importantissimo?
- Trezeguet: Faccio fatica a[sup](1)[/sup] descriverlo. È stato un momento completamente unico. Anche perché la partita è finita[sup](2)[/sup] così, subito dopo.
- Giornalista: Avete fatto un gran campionato.
- Trezeguet: È stato un campionato bellissimo per noi, ma anche gli azzurri sono stati fortissimi, sopratutto nella finale. Abbiamo sofferto tanto, ma poi è arrivato il pareggio di Wiltord. Quasi non ce l'abbiamo fatta[sup](3)[/sup].
- Giornalista: Adesso passi alla Juventus.
- Trezeguet: Sono molto entusiasta. Conosco il club molto bene grazie a Zizou che mi ha detto che è una società molto seria. Tra l'altro basta ricordare la Juventus degli ultimi anni ed è tutto chiaro perché ho accettato il transfer.

- "faccio fatica a..." ~ "I struggle to...".
- "la partita è finita" ~ "the match ended", but in general simply "è finita" is often used to say "that's it", "it's over" etc.
- "ce l'abbiamo fatta" ~ "we made it", and in infinitive form: "farcela". "non ce la faccio più" ~ "I can't take it anymore" [not it it do more]. The "ce" looks completely pointless here and in fact it does nothing.
