Fonseca rues Milan's decision-making and profligacy after Genoa stalemate
AC Milan registered 22 shots on goal against Genoa on Sunday, but were unable to find the breakthrough at San Siro.
Paulo Fonseca rued AC Milan's decision-making and profligacy during their goalless draw with Genoa.
The Rossoneri were frustrated at San Siro on the day the club celebrated their 125th anniversary, failing to score for the third time in their last four home league games.
That was despite registering 22 shots on goal to their opponents' five, with substitute Alvaro Morata going the closest to breaking the deadlock when he hit the crossbar during the second half.
"I think we played a good game and created a lot," Fonseca told DAZN.
"The players wanted to win, but we just lacked the goal and also the quality in the last decision. The game was played with a good attitude. We recovered many high balls. We had 22 shots, we lacked the goal.
"We were aggressive without the ball, arriving many times close to Genoa's area. It's not a question of confidence, but of the quality of the last choice.
"Sometimes, we talk about forwards, but our game has also lacked quality in crosses and shooting. I have total confidence in our forwards."
Milan were booed off the pitch at full-time having now recorded just one win in their last five league outings, and Fonseca empathised with the supporters.
"It's normal for this to happen," he added. "We wanted to win for our fans, who are always with us.
"Today, we can all recognise that the team gave everything. I'm dissatisfied with the result; the fans are, too, and I understand them."
