Davide Bartesaghi spoke to Sky Sport at the end of Milan-Ferencvaros 0-2. These are the words of the Rossoneri full-back after the defeat:
What did you say to coach Amorim?
“The truth is that we needed to talk among ourselves. The performance is beyond comment. We came onto the pitch without the right attitude. We ruined everything that had been a good week. We need to roll up our sleeves from tomorrow and get to work.”
What was missing? Bartesaghi said:
“We knew it would be difficult, especially in Europe. There was a lack of attitude, determination and desire to fight for second balls, and we paid the price for it."
Were there any signs before performances like this?
"We knew everything, including about our opponents. We have been training well during the week, especially after the derby, when we had the right enthusiasm. The alarm bells only started ringing afterwards, on the pitch. In the second half, we tried to recover as much as possible, but we couldn't do it," said Bartesaghi.
On the attitude again:
"We lacked the right attitude from the very beginning. We had to react immediately and not wait until we had been hit. They created chances from our mistakes. From tomorrow, we will lick our wounds and see what went wrong, approaching the next match with the right determination and a different team spirit."
