Speaking to ‘Sky’, Milan midfielder Tijani Reijnders commented on the narrow defeat suffered at the BayArena against Bayer Leverkusen: “Before the goal we weren’t able to follow our strategy. We started the match quite well, but then we dropped down too much and allowed him to play too much on the flanks. We only started playing the way we want after the 1-0, but we didn’t find the equalizer. At that point the goal was the only thing we were missing.”
You are still stuck at zero points
Yes, of course, but there are still six games to go and I have faith: we can change the situation. We are Milan and we must remain in the Champions League.”
Final result: Bayer Leverkusen-Milan 1-0
