AC Milan welcome Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur to the San Siro tonight in their Champions League last 16 first leg.
Both sides sit 5th place in their respective leagues, but the mouthwatering prospect of a Champions League quarter-final will be their primary focus.
The last time these two sides met at the San Siro, Peter Crouch netted the winning goal for Spurs to give them a vital away goal and a win to take back to White Hart Lane.
But, the drama really got going at the final whistle when Milan defensive midfielder Gennaro Gattuso made the ultimate mistake of squaring up to the Tottenham first-team coach, little did he know it was Scottish hardman Joe Jordan.
Joe Jordan kept antagonising Gattuso throughout the match and the Milan midfielder kept biting the bait.
It’s the 10th anniversary of Joe Jordan and Rino Gattuso going toe-to-toe at the San Siro.

Known for his gritty, aggressive no nonsense behaviour on the pitch, not a lot of footballers wanted to get on the Scottish striker’s wrong side.
Joe Jordan made over 450 appearances at senior level including a stint at Milan but on this occasion, he was the enemy.
Did Gennaro Gattuso pick the wrong fight in Joe Jordan? Let us know!
