Milan "sentenced" to win, Conceicao: I've been through worse

Milan will face Girona in the seventh round of the Champions League. The Rossoneri have no other alternative result than victory. 

Although it is expected to be a difficult match at "San Siro", the Italians are doomed to take the victory. 

This was also acknowledged by coach Sergio Conceicao at the press conference. The Portuguese coach stated that due to history, Milan must advance further. 

According to him, the situation is not very good, but he admitted that he has faced more difficult things in the past. Conceicao asked for the help of the fans, to get a positive result. 

"I think all matches are different. It's true that being in the best club competition in the world is always a great motivation. Big teams like Milan have to work every year to be present. 

In the championship we are working to climb the standings. We will try to send Milan to the next round of the Champions League. History is very important to move forward. 

This week we had little time to prepare. The boys were focused on what we said. I said it after Juventus that it is a mental job. I am the coach and I have to solve this. The players have been motivated every day to work and to have the evolution that we are looking for. We want to do well in all competitions, not just in the Champions League. 

We are looking for continuity. The boys are also aware of what needs to be done. We have to look each other in the eye, work on the field and believe in what we are doing. I have faced worse situations, but it happens. The players are aware that there is a lot of work to do and to improve. 

For this match we only have 12-13 players from the first team. Three goalkeepers and three youngsters. I also have a message for the fans. They are the soul of the team. We are in a difficult moment and we need their support. They are the 12th player. Without them, the club does not exist. We need them.

Pulisic will be with us. We have the last training, let's see how he is. I don't want to risk him and lose him for two months. He can be on the bench, but it's not good to risk him. 

"The problem? It's the coach who has to explain what he wants, it's me who has to do something more and that's why I'm here," Conceicao declared. 

The Milan-Girona match will be played on Wednesday, starting at 9:00 PM at the "San Siro" stadium.
