Milan, Pioli's pre-match press conference ahead of facing Lecce

Milan will take back to the pitch for their first Serie A match since early March, days after their defeat to Juventus in the Coppa Italia semifinal. Coach Stefano Pioli spoke ahead of the encounter against Lecce: "The closed doors influence the match negatively for everyone. Fans are football, we won't have extra adrenaline and we must find it within ourselves. Ibra is doing well, he will have another test next week. He is working with desire and dedication. Musacchio's season is pretty much over. Duarte could be available for the next match. We have a big goal to reach towards. Our position in the table doesn't reflect our quality and we have the chance to show it. The team is concentrated and motivated. We were putting a lot of hopes into the Coppa Italia and it's a disappointment to have gone out like that, we tried until the very end. We are Milan, we must give our best always."
