Ismael Bennacer believes Milan \u2018managed\u2019 their emotions well in a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Roma at the San Siro, as he feels they could\u2019ve also \u2018conceded\u2019 in a second half that saw the Giallorossi create dangerous chances.<\/p>\n

The Algerian midfielder returned to action four months after a serious injury and was \u2018happy\u2019 to be back, as he replaced Filippo Terracciano at half time and played the remaining 45 minutes.<\/p>\n

    Bennacer: Milan managed emotions \u2018well\u2019 against Roma but \u2018lost continuity\u2019<\/h2>\n

    \u201cI\u2019m very happy to be back on the field, it was important for me because I worked really hard,\u201d Bennacer told reporters at a post-match press conference<\/p>\n

    \u201cIt\u2019s never easy to recover from injuries like this.<\/p>\n

    \u201cIt was a bit of a special match for me, we didn\u2019t lose focus and managed our emotions well. We could have gone ahead, but we could have conceded a goal as well, in the end, we didn\u2019t lose.<\/p>\n

    \u201cWe have to look ahead because there\u2019s an important goal to prepare for in the coming days.<\/p>\n

    The 27-year-old had played his only minutes under coach Paulo Fonseca on the Serie A debut day against Torino and was back in what may have been the last game in charge for the Portuguese manager.<\/p>\n

    Asked if he has found \u2018problems\u2019 in the team, Bennacer conceded they have \u2018lost continuity\u2019 and need to recover their \u2018winning spirit\u2019.<\/p>\n

    \u201cI won\u2019t say there are problems within the team,\u201d the midfielder continued.<\/p>\n

    \u201cWe have new players, some of them young, and it\u2019s up to us more experienced players to push the team. We\u2019ve lost some continuity, but we need to find our winning spirit again.<\/p>\n

    \u201cFor this, we just need work, patience, and the will to look forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

    The Rossoneri have won just two of their last five Serie A games and now sit eighth in the standings.<\/p>\n
