AC Milan fans are still over the moon with the derby victory last Sunday. They expect a victory, however, in the next Serie A fixture, which is at the San Siro against Lecce.
In today's press conference, head coach Paulo Fonseca was asked the following question: "Is it harder to win a derby or to maintain your position?" The Portuguese tactician offered the following response:
"The responsibility here is always the same. For me, what is more difficult to manage is the victories. I think that’s normal. The day before the match with Inter, I knew the players were motivated and mentally ready."
Fonseca added:
"What’s dangerous here is playing against Lecce. In the players’ minds, there isn’t the same difficulty as with Inter. But we need to make the players understand that the most difficult thing is to make them realize that we have to play in the same way."
