Gennaro Gattuso admits “a stabbing would’ve been less painful” than Milan conceding a 95th-minute equaliser from the Benevento goalkeeper.

The 2-2 draw on his debut came just days after replacing sacked Vincenzo Montella on the Rossoneri bench.

“It hurts, I can say that. A stabbing would’ve been less painful than this goal,” Gattuso told Sky Sport Italia.

Gennaro Gattuso admits “a stabbing would’ve been less painful” than Milan conceding a 95th-minute equaliser from the Benevento goalkeeper.

The 2-2 draw on his debut came just days after replacing sacked Vincenzo Montella on the Rossoneri bench.

“It hurts, I can say that. A stabbing would’ve been less painful than this goal,” Gattuso told Sky Sport Italia.

“We suffered in the final 15 minutes, but conceded a bizarre goal. I never would’ve expected to concede at the last second with the opposition goalkeeper on target.

“This team might look like it’s just wandering around not bothered by anything, but instead I saw a really downhearted side in the locker room today. We are Milan and must do more, because the current level is not enough.

“It was my first game on the Milan bench, a side I represented for many years. I had thought we’d done it, but instead we made a naïve mistake giving away that free kick with Ignazio Abate.

“It hurts and we are here licking our wounds.”
