“Defeat is part of a growth path, after years we returned to play a match for the top against a team built to win the scudetto“. This is the analysis of Max Allegri on Sky Sport, after the defeat at San Siro against Inter which thus extended the standings to +4 (with also one game less): “We have had a not good week but these things happen in a season, now we have to be good at recovering as soon as possible and continuing the journey to conquer the Champions League next year“. On the match: “We could have done better in the last sixteen metres. First half blocked but without huge opportunities, second half more open, anyone could have scored, we needed more precision on our part.”
Question of experience
Allegri continues: “Experience also always counts, it’s one thing to play fifth against third, another is a challenge between first and second in the standings, but growth also comes from here. Do we still believe in the scudetto? Let’s think about Udinese and about winning again, remembering that this defeat does not affect what we have done so far” – he reiterated to Sky. And again: “I don’t reproach the team for anything, on the contrary, I congratulate them for what they have done. No one would have expected this ranking position in June. Inter match point? I repeat, they are two different paths, we are happy with what we are doing and angry for the knockout, but the season is long. Inter are the favorites for the Scudetto and I’ve always said so” – he added to DAZN.
