The head coach of "Milan" Stefano Pioli commented on the result of the match of the 17th round of Serie A against "Lecce".
— In the first half, we did everything with mistakes. Later, the game became more difficult. In the second half, we reacted well and managed to achieve more. We were disappointed with the results against Roma and Torino and wanted to get off to a better start. The mistake with the first goal was obvious, but we needed to keep the ball better.
A replacement for Hernandez? At the end of the first half I could have substituted many players. I chose it to freshen up the flanks.
Fighting for the Scudetto? We need to win enough matches to catch Napoli. Now we have to think about the Super Bowl, which is the principle final. I hope to bring back Rebic and Zlatan to give Giroud a rest, but we have enough freshness in the squad, said Stefano Pioli.
It should be noted that after 17 rounds, "Milan" occupies the second place. Stefano Pioli's men scored 38 points. The leader of the tournament table remains Napoli, which has 47 points.
