Milan Coach Massimiliano Allegri Bemoans Dropping Points Against Lecce

Despite claiming a draw against Lecce, Milan boss Massimiliano Allegri believes his side should have won the match, and not dropped two points.
Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri has confessed his side dropped two valuable points against Lecce, despite claiming a 1-1 draw this evening.

The league leaders gap at the top has now shrunk to four points, but Allegri was pleased with how the Rossoneri played in the second-half.

"We try our best to use the qualities that [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic has, and tonight he scored a wonderful goal," the tactician revealed post-match to Sky Sport. "It is, though, disappointing to have dropped two points on the road.

"In the first-half, we created very little, but in the second-half after we scored, the team started to play well. When we had the lead, we failed to keep Lecce out.

"When our opposition made their substitutions, we did not clarify which player should mark who, and this hurt us, especially when they scored. We know what we could have done, and matches like this can occur.

"We do not need to be worried, as Lecce barely got close to our penalty area in the first-half. We finished the match playing strongly, and a result like this is normal throughout a long season," he concluded.
