The performance was chaotic, and our team's goal was shaken by two early goals, after which we remained on the field without success. I believe the defeat was due to fatigue and a physical and mental decline. Responsibility is collective, and we are all united until the end. We are all prone to making mistakes, and personally, I was not smart in some aspects, as I created many scoring opportunities that we did not capitalize on. The final whistle blew for the number 10 the day after an Italian press poll on the future of the team's stars at the end of the season showed that 75.9% of fans supported the departure of the team's top scorer (9 goals this season), while fans welcomed the retention of his teammates, Minjanje and Pulisic. Leão's performance declined after he was a candidate to conquer the world between 2022-2023, winning the 'Serie A' Player of the Year award and carrying Milan on his back to the Champions League semi-finals. However, he has regressed in the last three years, and his speed may have decreased due to muscle gain. Coach Allegri relied heavily on Leão, and the striker repaid him with a few goals, but it was not enough, and the Italian seems to be losing patience. He will likely keep him on the bench against Verona despite the plan to play with two strikers and will rely on Pulisic and Nuno Conceição or Chimentes and Völklug to strengthen third place, which qualifies for next season's Champions League. Leão is also struggling at the national team level, as he has not secured a starting spot in the World Cup, with coach Martinez preferring other options. Milan's French international star, Adrien Rabiot, defended his Portuguese teammate Raphaël Leão after he was booed in a 3-0 loss to Udinese. Rabiot said: "I can understand the boos because the defeat was heavy, but I was disappointed to see the boos directed at Leão. We need to help and support him, and that whistle doesn't help him."
