Milan have finally achieved their first victory in the Europa League, getting back on track after their inexperienced debut against Benfica. The Rossoneri team beat Salzburg 4-0, but the performance did not completely convince coach Ruben Amorim. In an interview, the coach underlined that, although the match was positive, the result does not fully reflect the quality of the game shown. Amorim said that in other games the team had more control and played better as a group, but that the end result is what counts. He also highlighted that, if Salzburg had been more precise, they could have scored, and asked to work on some gaps in the construction of the game and in the defense.
Despite the victory, Amorim maintained a sober tone, warning that now is not the time to get excited or believe the situation is resolved. He reiterated the importance of continuing to work serenely to progress. The coach also expressed satisfaction with the performance of some key players, such as the hat-trick by Cisse, who became the youngest Italian to score a hat-trick in Europe, and for the good performances of alternatives such as Hutchinson and Jashari.
The result brings Milan three points in the group standings, confirming the need to constantly improve. The coach closed the interview by recalling that teamwork and discipline remain fundamental to achieving future goals. Milan's next match promises to be crucial to consolidate their position in the group stage and to demonstrate that they can compete at European level.
