JAKARTA - AC Milan's Technical Director, Paolo Maldini is optimistic that his team can compete with Napoli in the race for the Serie A title this season. This was revealed by Maldini after cutting the difference in points with Napoli thanks to a win over Fiorentina.
Milan bagged a 2-1 win at home to Fiorentina at the San Siro Stadium on Monday, November 14. The Rossoneri's 15th week of Serie A 2022/2023 was thanks to Nikola Milenkovic's own goal in the final minutes.
This victory made Milan difference with Napoli into just eight points. While still significant, victory against La Viola is crucial.
These results made AC Milan continue their good trend of packing 11 wins in a row. "Of course, we believe in it (competing to challenge the title). Last year at our derby we were seven points behind Inter Milan, then we won," Maldini said as quoted by Livesore on Monday, November 14.
However, Maldini believes that future competition will still be tight. He demanded I Rossonerri to continue to grow.
"It's not easy to maintain this speed until the end, we have to develop. Maybe at this time we are a little short of energy," he continued.
Maldini only hopes for the consistency and enthusiasm of the players to be maintained. Because in the near future, the competition will be suspended for a moment with the 2022 World Cup event.
"We just have to keep the enthusiasm and enthusiasm that led us to win last year," he said.
