Zaccagni states Lazio’s victory against Milan was ‘deserved’: “Should have ended it earlier” | OneFootball

In another game where AC Milan were left needing more, the Rossoneri fell to defeat against Lazio, and with that defeat, European football next season seems off the table.

There is a certain level of weight that falls on the shoulders of those who don the stripes of Milan. With this, there is another level of expectation that arises when things don’t go to plan. When the two mix, it becomes a quite unbearable weight to manage, and we are seeing this in action.

Across the board, the Diavolo look timid. A must-win game at San Siro, and rather than attacking things, the Rossoneri looked scared to put a foot wrong and were overcautious, sticking to what they knew and terrified to take risks.

As a result, the full-time score was not really a surprise, but rather just a more painful reminder of the current situation, and speaking after the game, Mattia Zaccagni spoke about how his side were ‘deserving’ of the three points, via Milan News.

“We don’t look at the league table, we were very focused: we played a great game and maybe we should have ended it earlier. We had a lot of chances, a deserved victory.

On Pedro’s coolness…

“I think he was the perfect man to take a penalty one minute from the end. He is a champion and he won everything. We all did a great performance and I am proud.”
