“Entering San Siro and giving the gift of a victory is beautiful,” the defender said after the game.

“Another battle awaits us on Wednesday, and I hope San Siro is full again. We’ve shown great improvement, but it must be nourished with hard work and training.

“I’ve always drawn positives from the criticism that comes my way to keep improving. if someone criticised me, there were probably reasons for it.

“Cutrone’s goal? If it was given, it means it was seen that way. It’s my fault: if I had touched [the ball] earlier, there wouldn’t have been any doubt.”
