"There was a lot of pressure, we risked throwing away everything we've built throughout the year. We haven't achieved anything yet; we have one last game to win at home against Cagliari, and we hope to do so."
"Let's just say I have to thank the players, those who have worked and are working alongside me, who have supported me and put up with me. We still have a week to go to reach our goal."
"It didn't fly by, I was too caught up in the game. We also did well in injury time because we didn't let them get close. We even had a chance to make it 3-1 with Pulisic. Hopefully we can get our last win on Sunday, we're at home and we've only got one point in our last three games."
"It means that going into the final game against Cagliari at home another three points will be enough not only to finish inside the top four but to get third. Dropping points would complicate things a bit, but there is a two-point cushion to Juventus and Como in fifth and sixth."
Milan beat Genoa with goals from Christopher Nkunku and Zachary Athekame, restoring calm after a poor run that produced one win in six games. During the match, the live standings briefly placed Milan in fifth for the first time in 2026. Allegri emphasized that Milan are not over the finish line, stressing that nothing has been achieved yet and that the final home game against Cagliari is still required. He noted the pressure of late-season stakes and the need to recharge after being drained. Milan also have a two-point cushion over Juventus and Como in fifth and sixth, but dropping points would complicate the fight for third and a top-four finish.
