CESENA - "It was all planned…" So began a smiling Leonardo, speaking after Cesena v Inter. "Seriously, it was a difficult match. Cesena was compact and we were manoeuvring slowly. We conceded a goal when we weren't under pressure, then Pazzini came on and you saw what happened. AC Milan? We're thinking of ourselves... No postponement for anyone else. A victory like that is our party, and that's all. Also because these players, in all the difficult situations, they give everything. We had to win to maintain second place. Today we suffered, but winning in this way was really incredible. The team was there and they showed it once again, even if they didn't play incredibly well. The Scudetto? We don't have to think about that…," smiled the coach once again. He then added: "What Inter had to think about was the Champions League question, and that's what they did. Certainly AC Milan have the ball in their court, although anything can happen in football, as you saw today..."
The Nerazzurri coach repeated: "The match had taken a difficult turn, with slow manoeuvring, also on the part of Cesena. After having allowed the goal we shifted forward and stretched ourselves, finding a win like this ... calculated ..."
The coach was then asked to account for the choices made in the attack: "It's not a rule that it has to be 'Pazzini or Milito'. The choice was made according to the game. Pazzini came into the match with Diego and this created more problems for Cesena, who put on another defender."
Leonardo added: "Mathematically the race continues, then there's a Coppa Italia match to play to get to the final. There are few games to play and still many things to achieve."
