In the first round of Serie A held early this morning, Milan lost 1-2 to the promoted champion Cremona at home. Milan legend Ambrosini commented on the game.

Ambrosini, who was a commentator at DAZN, first said: "In my opinion, it was a very bad and unexpected game, with Milan having a lack of investment in both technical and spiritual aspects. The players were expecting to play a different game, but they didn't show their level as they should be. Cremona played a cautious game and won respect and praise."

Ambrosini continued: "Fofana and Chick are plug-in midfielders, but it's hard to play in a small space. In this case, what you need is a higher skill level, but Milan obviously doesn't. Prisci Occasionally there are some flashes, S-Jimmenez has almost nothing. In the back, Tomori did not actively forward, and Esturpinian also encountered great difficulties. "

Finally, Ambrosini said: "Modric's level is there, and he proves it. He sometimes also tries to expand his range of activities. From the perspective of leadership and charisma, he is not bad, and his technical aspects are impeccable. If Modric is placed in a higher position, the defense task may be reduced. Modric has also played a back midfielder at Real Madrid, but he has performed better in a higher position."
