ALLEGRI: "THE MOST IMPORTANT MATCH OF THE SEASON" | OneFootball

The final, decisive league match: AC Milan v Cagliari will decide the Rossoneri's season. Massimiliano Allegri spoke in his pre-match press conference, broadcast live on the AC Milan Official App and Milan TV from 14.00 CEST.

2026 "Our form in 2026 has been poor. In our last three games at San Siro, we've picked up just one point; these are the numbers. Tomorrow is the final match of the season and our objective is within reach. We face Cagliari with great respect; they've had a good campaign and, with a head coach in his first season, they've already secured safety. We need to put in a professional performance tomorrow, knowing we have the opportunity to qualify for the Champions League."

THE MATCH AND THE FUTURE "The future is tomorrow - it's the most important game of the season for us, for everyone working at Milanello and Casa Milan, and for all the fans, who have always stood by us and supported the team. It won't be easy, but we have 100 minutes to get the job done. The danger for us is our attitude and any hint of complacency. The mistake we must not make is approaching the game with less focus than we showed in Genoa. We have to see the criticism as motivation to do better."

CONDITION OF THE TEAM "Everyone is available, which means all of them can play a part, because the game can also be decided in the final half hour. Cagliari are a strong side who, statistically, tend to concede goals towards the end of matches. We need to stay organised and not overdo things, especially as the opening stages will be difficult."

OWNERSHIP SUPPORT "The ownership has always been close to the team. Given the importance of this period, that support has been even stronger recently, and we're pleased with that. Tomorrow, we hope to win and secure Champions League qualification."

TRAINING CAMP "It was the players who asked to stay on Friday after training. It's good to be at Milanello, we have time to work and recover properly. It was an important sign of responsibility from them - they understand the importance of the match that awaits us."

RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FANS "AC Milan has a history and a DNA that must be respected. Everyone who works at the Club must show passion and professionalism in order to achieve results. I know I lead an extraordinary group who tomorrow must help us achieve the season's objective, together with the fans. The stadium will be full; we know it will be a difficult match, and we will need their support."
