AC Milan showed a poor display of form against Spezia as they lost 2-0 without even shooting a goal on target. Zlatan Ibrahimovic and his teammates were not capable of creating any danger worth mentioning.
As reported by the newspaper of La Gazzetta dello Sport today in their print edition, AC Milan after exiting the Coppa Italia, actually enjoyed two weeks free from midweek games and so mister Stefano Pioli and his coaching staff at Milanello decided to plan a few days of intense physical work for the squad.
These training sessions were held in the pre-Crotone week, while in the one that preceded the trip to La Spezia, regular athletic exercise sessions took place.
Therefore, it is not excluded that the decline against the Bianconeri of coach Vincenzo Italiano was caused by the "tired and heavy legs".
