Allegri angered by AC Milan draw

AC Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri was frustrated with his side's 1-1 draw against Lecce.

Although he admitted he was pleased with how his side played, Allegri admitted being "disappointed" with the two dropped points from the result.

"We try our best to use the qualities that [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic has, and tonight he scored a wonderful goal," the Italian said to Sky Sport. "It is, though, disappointing to have dropped two points on the road.

"In the first-half, we created very little, but in the second-half after we scored, the team started to play well. When we had the lead, we failed to keep Lecce out.

"When our opposition made their substitutions, we did not clarify which player should mark who, and this hurt us, especially when they scored. We know what we could have done, and matches like this can occur.

"We do not need to be worried, as Lecce barely got close to our penalty area in the first-half. We finished the match playing strongly, and a result like this is normal throughout a long season," he added.

The draw against Lecce cut AC Milan's lead at the top of Serie A to just four points ahead of nearest rival Napoli, who drew 0-0 with Fiorentina.
