Ruben Amorim admits AC Milan did not deserve to beat Juventus as Rossoneri drop points in Turin

Amorim was remarkably candid about his team's shortcomings amid persistent pressure from the home side. Speaking to DAZN Italia, the Portuguese coach confessed: "We didn't deserve to win, if we are honest, or more like Juventus didn't deserve to lose.

"We tried to play our game, we were not good with the ball. We had moments when we controlled the game in the first half, but we started losing the ball a lot, we didn't play well, but again we have been working together for two months. We need to do better, but we need time, it was a tough game for us."

Cisse's strike ended Milan's Serie A goal drought against Juventus stretching back to May 2023, while making him the youngest player to score in his first two away games during the three-points-per-win era.

Highlighting fundamental weaknesses in possession, Amorim added: "We have individual quality, but the simple things are the most important things, the way we receive and pass the ball, the fundamentals of football, today we were not good.

"My feeling is when my team doesn't have the ball, we struggle. When Juve put a lot of strikers in front, we defended well, but we suffered more when we lost the ball and they had transitions.

"We are not going to change the way we play, because we know that in some games it'll go well, in others it won't, but the important thing is that we fight to win. We could've won today, but again Juventus didn't deserve to lose either."
