With Crotone set to face AC Milan this Sunday at San Siro, club's head coach Giovanni Stroppa, has mostly spoken about the game at the press conference earlier this day.
On work during the week:
"It was not difficult to work during the week, but it was difficult for me to review the match against Genoa. We weren't used to these kind of matches, there has never been a match like this. I wanted to see the reaction of the boys, there was and they worked well. Going back to the game against Milan, it is a challenge that prepares itself".
On Crotone visiting Milan:
"They have all the components to put us in difficulty, they know how to dribble, they have individuality and physicality, seeing what Inter have done they are obliged to win. We will see what the race will be, it will certainly be a race of suffering, we will have to run even in a vacuum and have sacrifice in mind. We will not go to Milan to be defeated, if there are opportunities to hurt the opponent we will try to do it."
On whether Ounas will replace Messias:
"I think Ounas is a really important acquisition, it was an incredible opportunity. He is a boy who needs care, he needs to be motivated, he needs training, I certainly see him playing behind the striker. There will be doubt between him and Riviere to play against Milan."
On other injuries:
"Pedro Pereira is available, otherwise those who were missing will still be out."
On the difference between home and away games:
"I believe that home matches will be more important than away matches, you have to be calm, there is nothing certain."
