Allegri: Leo is a little weak in counterattack, it is very important to stay in the top four

After defeating Inter Milan 1-0, AC Milan coach Allegri said in an interview with DAZN that Leo was a little weak in counterattack.

About this game

- It was a great win and a great game. We struggled a bit in the first 15 minutes but then improved. We need to improve our finishing and get Salle Marcos and Pulisic more involved in the attack. In the second half, after we scored, Inter Milan would counterattack, which is normal, but our defense was well organized. We also created some counterattack opportunities, but Leo was a little weak, but the team overall performed well and defended quite well.

Do you regret losing points to a weak team more, or do you enjoy winning a dialogue with a strong team more?

- It feels great to win all the head-to-head matches. Sometimes in the league you drop points against weaker teams, but at the end of the day, the points we got were what we deserved. We need to improve a lot in terms of offensive pressing and fitness because we have been training very hard in recent weeks. As for penalties, we have Filippi who is very good at coaching our goalkeeper.

What did this game prove?

- This is a testament to our performance in the league. When the level of play is high, you have to keep your nerves high and be more aggressive on the counterattack. We must go further in this regard. This win is very important psychologically because we could be five points behind, so staying in the top four is very important. Pulisic has done well with Leo and Nkunku needs to come into play because he is an important player and we need everyone to work hard.
