'Football is my life' - Ribery still feeling young after strong start at Fiorentina

After inspiring his side to a win at San Siro, the French winger insisted age is just a number

Franck Ribery says he may be advancing in years but on the pitch he still feels young after putting on a masterclass in Fiorentina's 3-1 win over AC Milan.

The veteran French forward scored his side's third goal at San Siro and he was applauded by the home fans after scoring and when he was substituted late on.

Ribery was a constant thorn in the side of a sorry Milan side, who were reduced to 10 men when the former Bayern Munich star was caught by Mateo Musacchio's rash challenge.
