Milan secured the presence in the Italy Cup final with an enlightening victory over rival Inter (3-0) in the second leg of the semi-finals, but Sérgio Conceição wanted to keep his feet based on Earth.
“We haven't won anything yet, a final is still missing and, especially, a season ending where we need to give our best to change the face of this Milan. We have much more quality than we have shown so far, ”said the Portuguese coach to SportMediaSet microphones, not wanting to talk about the future, although the Italian press almost works at the end of the time.
“My future is not important, the important thing is to beat Venice and play the final in Rome. We haven't won anything yet, the players are always the same, so it's not that everything is going well now or was bad before. We just need to find a balance, both tactical and emotional, ”he said.
Conceição also praised the work of former Benfica Luka Jovic, author of a bis tonight.
«He has worked very well in recent weeks, even lost a few pounds. He gives us something we wanted for the game. He gives no references to the centrals and plays well behind the midfields, today we needed his support. However, we have complete confidence in all players, maybe Giménez and Abraham play in the next games. They know it's for tactical reasons, nothing more. It is a pity that in the championship what we prepared did not speak in the games, ”he admitted.
The Portuguese coach also confessed that he is living “a mix of emotions” because of the bad results of the team in the championship, something that affects until the day to day at home.
«I suffer more than anyone else, even my family, and my wife is not happy with that. But at least now, she's happy to be calm on these two days. We have to have a different championship end, we have more quality than we have shown. The boys work well during the week, but games have their own life, they are all different. Tonight I liked the attitude and solidity of the team, in defense and attack. We suffered in the first few minutes more than we wanted, but then we marked. Second time of the very high level. I'm happy, they deserve the compliments. We have a quality team, but they need to be connected to humility, ”he concluded.
