De Rossi believes a draw was fair even if Genoa 'deserved' to win: "A huge disappointment"
"Let's start somewhere else. Marelli has already said it all; he summed it up like this. That's his opinion... It's not mine, let's move on. A fair draw based on what we saw on the pitch. They pushed hard in the second half; they didn't deserve to lose. But we deserved to win based on the game we played, especially our great first half. We were a bit slow in the second half, but that's normal against a team like that. Then it ended like this, and it's a huge disappointment."
"Before the match, I named two penalty takers: Malinovskyi and Martin, who had been substituted. It was my choice; I called him from the bench because I've seen him take free kicks and penalties in training, and he has an incredible shot. It was absolutely my choice. Seeing the others who were on the pitch,"
Genoa dominated large portions of the match and arguably should have won, while AC Milan spent much of the game chasing. Milan's ongoing struggles against bottom-half teams continue despite two wins after Christmas. Christian Pulisic had a goal that did not stand, and Milan conceded a last-minute penalty that created controversy over whether Genoa deserved the points. Massimiliano Allegri left the match frustrated at wasted effort. Daniele De Rossi called the result a fair draw, praised his side's strong first half, expressed disappointment at the ending, and explained his choice of penalty takers.
