During the pre-match coverage on Sky Sport 24, AC Milan coach Paulo Fonseca spoke to the microphones, sharing his thoughts just minutes before kickoff. Here are his statements:
On how to defend against Atalanta:
"We need to defend well. A team like Atalanta creates a lot and is strong on the wings. That’s the key today. We must defend well to create opportunities to attack effectively."
On the importance of this match and the confidence a win would bring, Fonseca said:
"A win here brings points, which are crucial, and reduces the gap. It also brings a lot of confidence for the future. It’s important to achieve a good result and win here today."
On Yunus Musah’s confirmation in the lineup and the team's setup, Fonseca said:
"Since we started playing with Musah, we’ve found more balance and defensive solidity, as well as greater aggression. It’s been important, and we hope to continue delivering good performances, especially defensively."
