LECCE – MILAN 2-2-“I immediately think of the 1999 match. We played on a field at the limits of practicability after a summer downpour. We finished with over 35 degrees and a seesaw of emotions. That group never gave up, we managed to beat even Juventus and Inter in a Via del Mare fort.”
TODAY’S RACE. “It will not be an easy match,” he said. “If I were Baschirotto, I would rather face an AC Milan team that is back from a Champions League win than a contested team in crisis. In these moments, they either rise or fall apart. I would honestly sign for a draw perhaps seasoned by a good performance.”
THE ADVANTAGE. “The Giallorossi are playing at home and have nothing to lose. These are not the decisive games for salvation, but every point with the big ones can accelerate the path. We need an aggressive attitude, make it clear from the first look, from the first ball.”
GOLS AND SALVATION. “The forwards did their thing, but goals would be needed from defenders and midfielders at key moments of the season. Lecce always fights until the end, but there are three teams playing worse. As long as you are the architect of your own destiny, there is little to worry about.”
