Not a bad game at all not considering the first 10-15 minutes of the 1st half when the boys seemed to be a bit sleepy. In the second half we conceded too much space on a number of occasions and Siena had some very dangerous opportunities which they somehow failed to convert. I guess this was the result of Milan going a bit chaotically forward and then easily losing the ball thus giving Siena the chance of a swift counter attack. Also in a number of occasions, Milan's central midfield would leave the defence alone at the mercy of Chiesa and co without trying too hard to stop the Siena players while they still were away from our goal.
Pancaro, as mentioned, was a constant menace to his colleagues in the Milan rearguard and I am sure Carlo didn't take him out only because he would have lost one substitution. The rest of the Milan players did well and some very very well except for those moments when we would leave Siena attack our goal without trying stopping them in midfield.
Overall, it was not a bad game for Milan. I guess the three points are the most important part in a winning a scudetto, after all.
