You all lost a legend, just like we did with Franco Baresi, we need to honour these legends by helping our calcio and maintaining the legacy of these champions,” said Amorim.This weekend is also the Centenary of the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, known to all as San Siro.“It’s an honour to be part of the history of San Siro.

If you are, then there is something wrong with you,” confessed the Portuguese tactician.“But you cannot change the past, we can change the next game and must focus on that. I always have conversations with the team on what we need to improve.”ROME, ITALY – SEPTEMBER 12: Luka Modric of AC Milan in action during the warm up before the Serie A match between SS Lazio and AC Milan at Stadio Olimpico on September 12, 2026 in Rome, Italy. (Photo by Paolo Bruno/Getty Images)Amorim was criticised for excessive squad rotation in that match, including his decision to leave Luka Modric on the bench throughout.“Benfica changed nine players, and we need rotation too. It’s not because of the players in the first half that we lost the game, as we had more possession, clear chances, more touches in their penalty area, but we didn’t score. Looking at the game, it was more a team performance rather than the specific players on the pitch.”Is there a reason why Milan have not scored a single goal in the first half yet this season?“I think it’s just a coincidence, because if you look against Torino or Venezia, we had clear chances. Most of the time, the opponent is really organised in the first 45 minut
