After the 2006 FIFA World Cup, which Italy won, Caressa wrote a book about his experiences during his career and the World cup, called "Andiamo a Berlino" ("We're going to Berlin"), a reference to Caressa's exclamation at the end of Italy's World Cup semi-final victory against hosts Germany, which ended in a 2–0 victory after extra time; just a few seconds after Italy's second goal, scored by Alessandro Del Piero, Caressa shouted the phrase, expressing his joy for Italy's qualification for the final that would be played in Berlin.
