Milan, Pioli: "We have lost the ability to dominate in recent matches"

Milan withstood a stout effort from 10-man Crvena svezda to advance to the Europa League's round of 16. Interviewed in the post match, coach of the rossoneri Stefano Pioli revealed his thoughts as he outlasted Dejan Stankovic's players amid pressure: "The players are mature and the mentality, it's clear we are not at our best moment. We regret not doing more with the man advantage. Between the first and second legs I think Milan deserved to win. The result is a question of mentality, we often put on the breaks even though we shouldn't because of the big things we are doing. Recently, we have not been able to play as well from deep. Our opposition continues to know this strategy, and we have been more imprecise. We must work a lot on this because I miss our domination in matches."
