Tuttosport: Milan down but they must get back up again – Pioli counts on cohesion and spirit | OneFootball

The theme of the Milan team under Stefano Pioli’s over two-year tenure so far has been their ability to respond to adversity in a resilient and professional manner.

Tuttosport (via MilanNews) writes how Milan have shown that they know how to manage the negative moments that they have encountered even when most would find it easier to be overcome by rage like after the controversial 2-1 defeat against Spezia on Monday night.

Milan have been knocked down a few times, but they have always got back up and this spirit must be continued on Sunday night against Juventus. In recent times when the situation has become critical, Milan have always managed to recover rather than give in to the inertia of the complicated phase.

The game against Juve and then the derby against Inter after the break are season-defining ones with the Scudetto at stake, but Pioli’s strength has been building a cohesive group that has the strength to pull itself up, again and again, when things have not gone to plan.
