Quotes
 
"We prepared the game well, but Fiorentina did better than us especially in the first half, in terms of quality and energy, as they won most of the duels," Milan manager Stefano Pioli said after his side's win over Fiorentina.
 
"We did better in the second half and had chances to equalise, while we should've done better on the penalty, but the first half performance was not good enough. We ran a lot today, but didn't run smart.
 
"We weren't solid enough to stop them developing the play from the back and that meant we were caught out of shape, especially in the first half."
