MN: A joke with Nkunku and a jab at the team - Allegri's reaction after Fiorentina draw
"A point in Florence - where Milan had lost in the last two years - resulted in the gap with league leaders Inter and third-place Napoli unchanged, after they drew last night. There were other positives too, such as Nkunku scoring again and Niclas Füllkrug showing some excellent hold-up play. However, we saw the exact same mistakes made against Genoa: too many wasted chances, the team not on the same level of performance in both halves, and inattention leading to falling behind undeservedly."
"Allegri, entering the press room, saw Christopher Nkunku who had also been doing some interviews with various TV broadcasters before arriving for the presser. The coach said to his striker in front of the journalists present: "Oh, thank goodness you scored." They smiled and hugged, before each of them went to their respective microphones in anticipation. As often happens, the coach used a joke to ease the tension of a difficult match."
AC Milan salvaged a point in Florence after Christopher Nkunku levelled following Comuzzo's opener. Christian Pulisic missed several clear chances and Brescianini struck the crossbar late, while Mike Maignan produced a vital stoppage-time save on Kean. The draw left Milan's gap to Inter and Napoli unchanged. Positives included Nkunku scoring again and Niclas Füllkrug's strong hold-up play. The team repeated errors seen against Genoa: too many wasted opportunities, uneven performances across halves, and lapses in concentration that led to falling behind. Massimiliano Allegri publicly called his players to account and demanded more calm and consistency.
