Vincenzo Montella: "We want to win the last tournament in 2017"
Vincenzo Montella, coach of the Milan team, recalled that the recent crown they won against Juventus in the Italian Super Cup was obtained after finishing second in the Cup tournament, so he will seek to win this last tournament in 2017.
"We want to do well because we have to remember that reaching the final of this competition last season gave us the opportunity to play and win the Super Cup in Doha," he said.
This Thursday, Milan will play the quarterfinal match against Torino, so the coach declared the importance of the match and the competition, in which he has never been champion, neither as a player nor as a coach.
"It's like a final because every mistake can be costly. Torino has very good players, especially in the attack, they manage the midfield very well, we will not underestimate our opponents, facing them twice in a few days means that there will be no excuses in Monday's match," he said.
If they advance to the semifinals of the Cup, their matchup against Juventus would be repeated sooner than planned as the 'Vecchia Signora' will play the other quarterfinal against Atalanta, and if they win, they will face the 'Rossoneri' again.
