"It's an important victory because playing against Como is difficult because they play with the ball, they have good players, especially when you're behind you risk capitulating. Today Maignan kept us in the game after their first goal. We wanted to go for the ball high up the pitch, but their goalkeeper did a good job of catching us in open play with a few well-placed through balls."
"No message, we have to focus on ourselves, we're missing a lot of points. I think finishing in the top four would be a great result. We need to keep quiet, keep pedaling, not talk and focus."
"If there are players who cost €100m and players who cost €1m, there's a reason. You have to keep strong players on the pitch. It's right that Milan have great players alongside young, less experienced players who are used to playing to win, which is different."
AC Milan came from behind to beat Como 3-1, with Christopher Nkunku equalising from the penalty spot and Adrien Rabiot adding a second-half brace. Mike Maignan produced crucial saves after Como’s opening goal that kept Milan competitive. Milan attempted a high press but conceded space to Como’s through balls before Como dropped off around the 60th minute and began making errors. Milan then played more pragmatically to regain control. The coach emphasized the importance of keeping high-value, experienced players on the pitch alongside younger teammates, urged focus on the club’s own results, and framed finishing in the top four as a realistic target.
