A WIN FOR CLAUDIO

MILAN - All the post-match reaction from the Franchi stadium following Milan's 2-0 win.RICARDO KAKA'“We dedicate this win to Claudio Lippi as he dies a year ago today and so at the moment, we’re sad but we’re also happy as we can dedicate this victory to him. Generally, I’m not  a fan of these retreats with the team but it was important to go through this period together and that gave us something  extra. We had a tough game in Rome and now  we got this win here this evening. The coach asked us to stick together on the pitch and we created this wall in front of our defense so as not to concede a goal. We wanted to get back winning and now we can think about the good things we’ve done here and move forward to think about the points we can pick up from here on out”.SULLEY MUNTARI“Today’s win was very important and we dedicate it to Claudio who was always one of us. He’s up in the sky and he’s watching over us. We have to do well because then when he sees us he can be happy. We know that it’s not easy to play here in Florence, we were very focused on doing well. We’ve been together for 5 days ahead of the game, we’re doing well and we want to keep going as we’re doing. We’re working hard for the club, for ourselves and for the fans. We’re a family and even the players who have wives and kids at home like me and don’t get to see them as often as they’d like, but for us players, we’re another family. We’re a united family and we have keep on pushing on as we’re doing. All of us have to make sure we’re ready when the coach calls on us. We have to fight for this jersey, it’s a part of who we are and this is our life”.CLARENCE SEEDORF (Press conference)“We all showed the desire necessary to help the other guys on the team and that was the best thing we showed today. I’m very happy for the group of players for what they did against Lazio and Fiorentina, two teams that are tough to face. All credit to our adversary as Montella prepares his players very well. Let’s hope that this result will be the start of some continuity in terms of results. Both teams had chances this evening but we deserved the win for the substance we showed. I think that Matri has done some great things in his career and we all make mistakes. He’s already shown that he’s a Serie A striker. Japan should have no doubts about Honda, he’s a great player and he’s adapting to the Italian game. He played a great game tonight and got up and down the pitch well”.
