Sarri wins chess game against Allegri: Tactical analysis of Lazio 1-0 AC Milan

AC Milan were defeated in a cagey affair against Lazio on Thursday evening, with Massimiliano Allegri losing the 'chess game' against Maurizio Sarri. Like many other games before this season, the Rossoneri lacked in a lot of spects in the first half of the game. Or rather, you could definitely say that the two teams cancelled each other out, as Lazio didn't exactly create much either.

We were very good when we didn't have the ball ourselves. We had good organisation in the defence. And Forest were very good without the ball as well. It was more difficult for us to play against a team who were more like our team. We played the English way.

Carlo Ancelotti is one of the most important figures in modern football, and the former AC Milan coach and player is ingrained in the club's history.

As a manager, he has won five Champions League titles, five top-flight titles, and a host of other competitions, too.

Wins over Greece and Denmark or a draw in Greece and then a win over Denmark will guarantee Steve Clarke's side a place at next year's tournament in Canada, the United States and Mexico. This will be the fourth meeting with Greece this year, so there should be no big surprises in Piraeus, although it's difficult to gauge the hosts' mood given they are out of the running.
