AC Milan suffered a 2-1 defeat against Napoli in Serie A, significantly affected by injuries to key players like Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who underwent surgery for appendicitis. Despite Luka Jovic scoring a late consolation goal, Milan struggled to penetrate Napoli's defense, with Santiago Gimenez missing a penalty. Head coach Sergio Conceicao acknowledged the team's injury challenges and emphasized the need for improvement after Naples capitalized on early mistakes, although Milan's second-half performance showed promise, dominating in expected goals even in defeat.
"Since I've been here I've never made excuses, even though we played every three days until two weeks ago, but today absolutely everything happened."
"The doctor called me to tell me that Loftus-Cheek had to undergo surgery, Thiaw had intestinal problems and Leao felt a little pain in his thigh."
