Quotes
"Rafa is an intelligent lad, we know that we're in the Champions League semi-final, but for the next few weeks we need to give our all in Serie A," Milan manager Stefano Pioli said about Leao after their win over Lecce.
“I think Rafa ought to go more at the back post from open play as well as on corners. He is 1.90m tall, there are few full-backs who can deal with him physically in those situations.
"There are all these little areas he needs to improve on and we're working on them in training,: he continued.
“We had patience, but not the same sharpness that we needed in the final third, where we made too many bad choices. We controlled the match as expected and ran hardly any risks."
Head-to-Head
Roma and Milan drew 1-1 in their last meeting in the league which was on 8 January 2023 at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
As a result, Rossoneri are undefeated in their last six matches against Yellow and Reds having registered four wins and two draws.
