“We’re expecting a good match with Milan, we’re motivated. We respect them, they have several good players, but we’re also a good side and the match lasts 90 minutes. Our objective is to collect 9 points from the remaining matches. We’re more at ease after the win against Cesena. It was hard to turn the result around after the first half, but we managed it.”
