Video: AC Milan boss jokingly hints at resignation

Seven-time European champions AC Milan made it through to the group phase of the 2013-14 Champions League on Wednesday (28th August), following a 3-0 victory over PSV Eindhoven in the second leg in Italy – a 4-1 aggregate score overall.

Massimiliano Allegri, AC Milan coach:
“In the last two years there have been strange things in the press, always suggesting that Allegri is close to being fired, so tonight I gave some different lines. I don’t like a flat boring life, so I said I’ll take the night to think and maybe tomorrow I’ll resign.”

Philip Cocu, PSV coach:
“We tried to play the match with the same attitude we played in the home game, but clearly it’s different playing here at the San Siro. Also, the result we came here with was not the best to take into a return game. The difference in this kind of match is in the detail. You have to exploit the chances you have during the match. We had a good opportunity at the beginning but we weren’t able to take it.”
