Conceicao provides update on Fofana

“He had a small issue with his foot. He made an effort to be able to train during the week. He felt the situation flare up again. He has a small problem, I don’t think it’s anything spectacular. We have to manage it. Everyone is important, all the players.”

Conceicao on Milan's system

“We started in one way and finished in another. They pay me to work and read the game. Sometimes us coaches can give a little bit more, sometimes we can’t.

“We’re not just working on a system, We work at individual, departmental and collective levels. You get mistakes sometimes, like for the goal we conceded.

“That’s why we’re at Milanello, very focused on working on these things. We’re happy when the players succeed and win.”

Conceicao's thoughts ...

Talking to DAZN after full-time: “I think today was a demonstration that we have a strong and united group, where those who came on during the game gave us something extra.

“We changed in terms of position and put Joao with Santi up front and we opened up the attack a bit more. This is a demonstration of the skill of the players, not of the skill of the coach.”

Leao's post-match thoughts

Talking to DAZN after full-time: “We spoke to each other, these last few games are essential for us to score more points, We’re more compact with the new formation and I’m happy.

“Today we showed that everyone can make a difference. I try to help the team every game, whether it’s as a starter of starting from the bench.

“We’re switched on, we always try to give our best. We want to win a trophy, but let’s think about the league match against Bologna first.”

84'

Joao Felix with a nice bit of skill to break forwards, then overdoes it, tries another bit of skill and overruns it before he is able to get his shot off.

Leao goes into the book and is now suspended for Friday’s match against Bologna.

Genoa 1-2 Milan - Frendrup own goal!

Two in rapid succession for the Rossoneri, who are now ahead! Reijnders’s cut-back was about to fall perfectly for Joao Felix, but Frendrup felt he needed to do something, and ended up putting it into the back of his own net.

58'

Frendrup looks to bend one in to the far post from 12 yards out. He’s slightly off balance as he pulls the trigger and can’t quite get it on target.

57'

Meanwhile, Theo and Pulisic are stood over a Milan free-kick from 35 yards out.

Leali claims Theo’s low, but powerful delivery.

Reijnders now down receiving treatment on the pitch. Spray applied to his shin.

55'

Masini slowly gets back on his feet and is taken to the sideline. He’s bleeding from a cut just to the side of his mouth. That will need to be patched up.
