Coppa Italia, Milan: Paulo Fonseca sets the goal

Paulo Fonseca spoke in a press conference on the eve of Milan-Sassuolo, a match valid for the round of 16 of the Coppa Italia, not before sending a thought to Edoardo Bove: "I was watching the match, è it was a difficult moment. He worked with me in Rome, I am sorry for what è happened to him. Now he is better, not è soccer is important right now, but his health. It has been a difficult time. I send a hug from all of us, team and club. Today here at Milanello we è talked a lot about what è happened. I wish him to recover as soon as possible".

So he set the goal for the Coppa Italia: "Milan has not won this trophy for a long time. We have to be ambitious. Let&#39s not look forò too far ahead, let&#39s just think about tomorrow. If we want to go to the final, which must be our goal, we have to win tomorrow".

On the neroverdi: "For me they are not a Serie B team, they have many Serie A players. There isn't just Berardi. They beat Lecce 2-0 in the previous round, they are a strong team, we studied them. I told the boys to expect a tough game against a Serie A team".

On Friday the Rossoneri will be on the field again in Bergamo against Atalanta: "If we don&#39t manage the team and the players well we could have physical problems and we don&#39t want that. I have confidence in all the players, there will be some changes, but always with the goal of winning the game".

The Portuguese coach will have to do without Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez: "Maignan will not be there" due to tooth surgery. Theo also will not be thereà due to a foot contusion. The others are all ready to play. I will putò on the field a team to win".
