AC Milan's head coach, Sergio Conceicao, spoke to the media in a press conference following the big 0-3 victory against Inter.
Here's what the Portuguese tactician had to say:
"What we showed today, we weren’t able to show repeatedly in the league. If we had been humble, with this attitude—I’m not saying the league would have been a walk in the park, but we would have done things differently. I am very happy for the boys. Inter is a very strong team, I have great respect for them—they deserve the Champions League semi‑final."
Why today the attitude and not in the other matches?
“Sometimes moments go in our favor, other times they don’t. Like Atalanta, who hadn’t even crossed midfield and then scored off one of our mistakes. We must find this consistency because we have players of technical quality, but in football you also have to add other things.”
How are you? Conceicao replied:
"Now I’m fine. A bit more relaxed… I bring the problems home. We must find this consistency in this final stretch of the season. I told the players: every time we have an opportunity, we have to be focused at all moments."
What do you say to the AC Milan fans?
"I want to embrace all the players. I thank the fans who have been marvelous. They have shown great patience with the team. This final is primarily for them."
