ANCELOTTI: ‘Great desire on everyone’s part’
10/23/2005
MILAN - Coach Carlo Ancelotti’s post-game analysis of Milan-Palermo: ‘I didn’t have time to worry after Palermo’s goal because we tied immediately with Gattuso’s net. However, today was Pippo’s day because he started for the first time in a long time and he re-entered with a goal. I am happy for him, his team-mates are happy and I think that Milan’s fans are also happy. We are trying to find continuity. Today we slowly but surely controlled the play and in the second half we risked little. There was a great desire on everyone’s part to overturn the result and clinch a victory. Why did I remove Gilardino instead of Inzaghi? Because even when Pippo is tired he has a great instinct for the goal. Gilardino did well for one hour and Vieri also made an important contribution, they will grow with patience.’
