“We played and fought against a team that created difficulties for us. We were dangerous, it was another step forward and there is satisfaction both for us and for our fantastic fans," Milan manager Stefano Pioli said after their win over Fiorentina.
 
"From Tuesday we will prepare for the next match. It was a great relief. We had several opportunities. We had the right mentality, we continued to work as a team. With matches like this, there is always a bit of tension, we fought for a very important goal. 
 
"The players, despite being very young, are doing very well and are really good, they are overcoming important steps in terms of awareness, of knowing how to suffer: we are at a good stage.”
