"I don't agree so much with last Sunday's match. Honestly, Milan, also because they were a team with several absences, 10 minutes after we took the lead, never gave us the impression of putting ourselves in trouble. We failed miserably in a situation where we were down to 10 men, because our captain was out injured, and there wasn't that momentum where we all had to do a little bit more."
"If we had gotten results, we'd be more carefree, more brilliant, even better in terms of our play. When there are certain situations, you get out of them by putting in the game, especially in delicate, difficult moments, a little bit more. Instead, we did our homework and allowed Milan to regain confidence. When overall, the game was pretty much under control."
Stefano Pioli expressed frustration with his team's response in a previous match despite securing a 3-0 win that was only the club's second of the season. Rafael Leao had to pull Milan back into a game to reach a 2-1 full-time scoreline in that prior fixture. Milan will welcome Pisa to San Siro for the first time since 1991, nearly 13,000 days, with Massimiliano Allegri aiming for another victory. Pioli criticized the lack of momentum after taking the lead, the poor reaction when reduced to ten men due to an injured captain, and the concession of confidence to the opponent while the match was largely under control.
