Milan Standout Performer Laments Rossoneri Self-Destructive Mode | OneFootball

Milan suffered a dismal 2-1 defeat at perennial Serie A mid-table tenants Torino yesterday evening, casting further doubt on their top-four hopes. Tijjani Reijnders got on the scoresheet for the eighth time in the league this season, but it proved insufficient for the Rossoneri to avoid another fiasco.

Reijnderes addressed the press after the game, admitting Milan keep shooting themselves in the foot. Indeed, Sergio Conceicao’s charges bowed out of the Champions League knockout playoffs days ago, largely thanks to their own mistakes.

“At this moment, we make it very difficult for ourselves,” the Milan ace told DAZN via TMW. “We got the draw and then directly conceded the 2-1, so we have to be more mature. We cannot keep making it more difficult for ourselves in every game and that is what is happening right now.

“We try to be positive because there are still chances for us in the league. Now that we are out of the Champions League, maybe we can have more focus. Of course, it is difficult to stay positive after these losses, but we must go into it with confidence, otherwise it will be tough,” the Milan talisman concluded.

There’s no time for dwelling as Milan head to Renato Dall’Ara to lock horns with Bologna in a must-win Serie A fixture next week. With six points separating them from fourth-placed Lazio, Milan must beat Vincenzo Italiano’s side to remain relevant in an intense top-four race.
