Milan flop in the Europa League. The Rossoneri fail to recover Rome at the Olimpico. The Giallorossi, leading 2-0 after twenty minutes and despite being numerically inferior for an hour, won 2-1 and reached the semi-final. Another horror performance from a defensive point of view for the Devil who now virtually closes his season. Big disappointment for Milan. He spoke to Milan TV at the end of the match Stefano Pioli, Rossoneri coach. His statements after the elimination.
About the match: “Very disappointing. We played neither of the two games at our level. And if you don’t have the necessary quality and determination, you come out defeated”
On the lack of clarity in front of goal: “Clearly if in two games you shoot 40 times and only one defender scores from a corner, it means that we didn’t have the quality to score a few more goals and the determination not to concede the goals we conceded. We have to start again immediately for the derby and the championship finale.”
Did the early goal change the game plan? “No. We had prepared a strategy which we carried forward but we were not as intense and qualitative as we needed to beat an opponent who played two good matches”.
Is there disappointment? “We are disappointed, disappointed because the Europa League was our goal, because we did worse than last year in Europe, because we didn’t play at our level. We have to react, we have a game that is too important for the championship finale and for our fans.”
