Fonseca expressed his satisfaction after the derby win, highlighting its importance for Milan's current form. He praised the players for their courage and deserving the victory, noting that Inter faced significant challenges throughout the match.
AC Milan coach Paulo Fonseca was left delighted with their 2-1 derby win against Inter.AdvertisementAdvertisement“I don’t think we did change the structure of the team. We just did something a little different, which was that if we have difficulties, then Fofana can go between the central defenders in protection. What changed were the players.
“Morata had the same role as Reijnders did against Liverpool, so we didn’t really change. Obviously, they are different players, as Morata can go forward with greater ease, but the structure of the team was the same.
“It was important to give support to Abraham, who did great work, but the tactical structure remained as it was.”
He continued: “It will be a week with a little more confidence, but the important thing for me is to continue seeing the players believe in our ideas, the way they have done so far. We know that we must improve, but this was a victory for the players today.”
