Sergio Conceição has already experienced an intense match for his first on the AC Milan bench. He spoke after the forceps victory against Juventus.
Last night, AC Milan overthrew Juventus (1-2) in the semi-final of the Italian Super Cup. The Milanese made the difference in the second half, with two goals in five minutes at the start of the last quarter of an hour.
Sergio Conceição showed a lot of affection by holding his son in his arms for a long time at the edge of the field. The latter plays for Juventus and was therefore waiting for the meeting against his father’s coach but had the misfortune of injuring himself during the warm-up.
Recovery will require rigor
For the rest, Conceição was much less sentimental: “I’m not necessarily the friendliest. I thank the group for welcoming me like a coach who never smiles. I didn’t come to Milan to make myself friends, but to win”.
The former T2 of the late Dominique D’Onofrio at Standard already had to raise his voice at half-time: “In the first period, we were not good, it was theAC Milan from a few weeks ago, not enough deep runs, bad timing of pressing, a lazy midfield, too much slowness with the ball.
“It was better in the second half, these are not easy conditions, with only three days to prepare for the match, but we have no right to look for excuses. We just have to focus on the players present and show heart, desire, be hungry” he also declared. The core now knows what to expect for the next few months.
