About Milan's performance

After losing such a game, we have to come up with the strength to respond strongly. Obviously, we paid the price for our mistakes on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, but there were other responsibilities as well. This is really, really regrettable.

After the decisive scene appeared, we lost our sober minds. We have a desire to win, but things like that throw us into chaos. Obviously, we made a mistake when we conceded the second goal, we lost focus.

We could have won the game but somehow lost it, and it was a heavy blow to us. We know we have a high chance of winning and Leo's goal should give us confidence. We didn't get the victory we so desperately wanted, but the season was still long.

About referees

The referee made a mistake and he quickly noticed it and apologized. Unfortunately, that's already the way things are.

The referee made a series of mistakes, which he also admitted. Unfortunately on this very bad night, everything was not good for us. However, he needs to have the energy to respond immediately.

I tried to calm my players down, but Spezia's goal I was powerless. We know it's not fair, but we have responsibilities ourselves, and the referees and we all have one to take responsibility for. I'm really sorry to say something like that. But we should have scored more goals in the first half.

About the next two games against Juve and Inter

We shouldn't have lost today, our mistakes led to an equaliser and that's where we have to improve. In my opinion, such a game will give us momentum.

About Klunic and Bakayoko

All in all, we achieved a good balance. In the second half, we lost some of the ball defensively. But with the chances we created, it's really too few to score just one goal.
