Gasperini gives nod to Milan when questioned about Scudetto regret: 'A bit exaggerated'

Gian Piero Gasperini has worked miracles with this Atalanta squad, and AC Milan are sat watching from a mid-table position. 

This season has been one to forget every other weekend for Milan, and as we approach the end of the season, there is a peace to be found with a year that has been sub-par in almost every moment barring a few.

It begun with hopes of a Scudetto challenge, but it quickly became a case of fighting for the Champions League, then Europa League and then Europe generally. Now, after the defeat to the Nerazzurri, it seems the Coppa Italia is the only way.

On the other hand, Atalanta have had a season which the Rossoneri could have only dreamt of, fighting for the Scudetto for almost the full season, before recently dropping off.

However, there are no qualms to be had, and Gasperini even hinted at the Diavolo when discussing any Scudetto regrets post-game to DAZN, via Milan News.

The winner…

“A very beautiful and decisive goal, the result of the inclusion of the outside and midfielder. In the first half we hardly managed it, this was a beautiful choral action.”
