The Rossoneri defender insists that the Scudetto race is still alive and the team will fight until the last moment of the season to regain the league supremacy.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ignazio-Abate-c16673 has called for resilience from his AC Milan teammates, and insists that the team will fight until the end despite Juventus jolting past them to the league supremacy.
The Rossoneri trail the Bianconeri by three points with just five games remaining before the end of the season, but the defender insists that the Champions will not give up.
The Diavolo defender stated that the team feels mentally drained by the immense amount of action surrounding their football, and stressed the need for a psychological recharge for the players. The defender insisted that the time
calls for them to start believing that they can still take the Serie A trophy from the leaders, and pointed out that there are various instances in history where league titles have been won and lost on the final day.
While talking to Gazzetta dello Sport, the former Torino player stated:
“We have to recharge our mental batteries. We must believe that we can still win the championship because history shows us that titles can be claimed on the last day of the season.”
The Rossoneri barely avoided a home defeat at the hands of Bologna, thanks to a late equaliser from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 by Juventus saw the one-point lead
extend to three, between the two teams.
Just a few weeks ago, the Champions led the Bianconeri with an equal amount of points, but their consistent spillage of points combined with Juve’s spirited performances have seen the tables turned upon the Milan outfit.
Their recent disappointments, beside the Bologna stalemate, include 2-1 defeat to Fiorentina and a draw against Catania, not to mention the 3-1 defeat to Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League that knocked them out of the tournament,
and dampened their spirits substantially.
Both teams have relatively easier matches scheduled as their next Serie A games. AC Milan will face struggling Genoa, while Juventus will travel to Cesena for their next league clash.
