Real Madrid Italian had previously sneaked into the 2012 Coppa Italia final

An Italian football supporter managed to sneak onto the pitch at the Stadio San Siro on Saturday evening to join Real Madrid's players in their Champions League celebrations.

Gaspare Galasso made a name for himself in 2012 when he managed to find a way onto the pitch moments after Lazio's Coppa Italia triumph.

When Cristiano Ronaldo converted the decisive penalty to hand Real Madrid another Champions League title, Galasso was on the pitch again and, as his photographs prove, the Italian was among the players for the medal ceremony.

"I arrived in Milan on Saturday dressed very elegantly and approached the San Siro," he explained.

"I decided to enter the area reserved for police and service personnel. The commissioners tried to control my pace but I was dressed elegantly and walked assertively and so I escaped."

Galasso uploaded the photographs to his Facebook page and showed not only himself during the lifting of the trophy but also selfies with Florentino Perez, Sergio Ramos, Lucas Vazquez and Andriy Shevchenko.
