AC Milan midfielder Alexis Saelemaekers admits RB Salzburg pushed them all the way for Tuesday night's Champions League draw.
The opening group game finished 1-1 in Salzburg as Saelemaekers' free-kick canceled out Noah Okafor's opener.
Saelemaekers said, "I am very happy to have helped the team today, it was a very intense match from both teams. I think we had a good performance, we need to continue like this for the next Champions League tie.
“It is a very different style of football to Serie A, but we have a strong squad and will have our say in this competition. We take it one game at a time and see where we end up, but as always we want to do something wonderful."
Saelemaekers added, “I had a difficult period at the start of the season, I kept working, I feel good now and am happy to continue like this."
