Stefano Pioli spoke to the media ahead of AC Milan’s final game before the World Cup break, once again stating that the Rossoneri must show who they really are this evening.
Napoli are currently eleven points ahead (one more game played) and thus it’s crucial for Milan to come away with all three points this evening. San Siro is sold out and the atmosphere will surely be electric.
Speaking to DAZN, as cited by MilanNews, Pioloi shared his thoughts on the clash.
On tonight’s match…
“Fiorentina are motivated and are going through an excellent moment, but what we manage to do will count much more.”
On Thiaw as a starter…
“He’s a strong player, physically strong who also knows how to play the ball well. I told him to play as he knows how, to be motivated, determined and also serene.”
On the standings…
“We have to think only of ourselves. We have to raise our level of play, when we do it we are strong.”
