On Sunday, AC Milan fought for a point at the Allianz Stadium. However, there is a feeling that the result should have been better…
The new Milan is one that aims high, and this is thanks to Massimiliano Allegri. So far, they have gotten four points against two Scudetto contenders, normally solid results. This does not feel like the case, though.
Yesterday night, many were left with a sense of ‘What if?‘. Ultimately, the Rossoneri could have easily taken three points, but they failed to capitalise on big chances.
Regret and standards
MilanNews, this afternoon, write that despite Allegri’s repeated statements about his team’s goals of returning to the Champions League, he is left frustrated settling for a point. His press conference after the game showed as much; it was a case of covering the negatives with the positives of improvement in the game.
Even if he tried to question whether the result could be better in the long term, there was a clear feeling that his team needed to do more.
Regrets are fine, if anything, they are probably welcomed. After all, the Diavolo earned the chance to feel frustrated. However, they also earned the chance to win, but they didn’t take it. A point is better than none, but it is worse than three and that stings.
Against Napoli, they won; against Juventus, it was a draw. In different circumstances, perhaps it could have been six points with none conceded. Instead, Milan must settle for four points and a goal against.
They have time to learn; the new requirements may be brutal, but they could bring a champion mentality to the squad.
