The Nerazzurri lost 4-1 at home to Cagliari” data-scaytid=”8″>Cagliari in Serie A on Sunday, but Danilo D’Ambrosio and Mauro Icardi ensured a 2-0 victory this evening.
“The lads played a difficult and focused game, which was not easy after losing 4-1 to Cagliari,” Mazzarri told Mediaset Premium.
“I really want to thank the fans in the Curva who were exceptional and supported the team throughout the game.
“This was our sixth game in a row for many players and that takes up an incredible amount of energy. We learned the lessons from the Cagliari defeat.”
Yet champions of Azerbaijan Qarabag prompted quite a few scares at San Siro and kept a surprising amount of possession.
“With modern football all the games have levelled out. We must always try to win or it gets turned into a tragedy by the media. We are forced to get a result. Don’t forget in this environment the only thing that counts is the result.
“I liked M’Vila and Medel did very well, as when he came on the team became more solid and didn’t suffer any more. Those two can play together from the start, but we have to work towards that gradually, as there are a series of mechanisms and tests to be worked out. It is a tempting idea, though.”
