AC Milan suffered a big loss in the Derby della Madonnina against Inter last night and their confidence surely took a sizeable hit. However, as argued by Massimo Ambrosini, they must be given time.
Inter were clearly the superior team in the derby and eventually prevailed 5-1, making it a disastrous night for Milan. Stefano Pioli has been heavily criticised for his tactical approach, given that it’s the fifth consecutive loss in the derby.
Speaking to DAZN after the game, as cited by MilanNews, the former Milan captain Massimo Ambrosini shared his thoughts on the defeat. He stated that the Rossoneri must be given more time before tough decisions can be made.
“I think that Milan, due to the path that has been fantastic up to now and also unexpected from a certain point of view, should be given time to mature. The defeat was huge but the team must be given time to mature, and the youngsters must understand that the project is ambitious,” he stated.
Milan will be thrown right back into action on Tuesday evening as they will face Newcastle in the first UCL group stage clash. Bouncing back with a win is crucial, also because the group in the competition is a very tough one.
