New AC Milan coach Stefano Pioli says they must learn from their 2-2 draw with Lecce.
Pioli's first game in charge was ruined by a stoppage-time Marco Calderoni screamer for the 2-2 draw.
I struggled a little with players who I used to work with, Babacar and Calderoni," Pioli told Sky Sport Italia.
It's a pity, there were positives, but we wanted the win and didn't get it because of our mistakes. I saw some good moves, quality and spirit, but if you leave the game open, you can have a nasty surprise at the end.
Milan players are well aware of their capabilities and the fact they are wearing a prestigious jersey. They will be able to judge their own performances and we'll analyse them carefully, but in a way we paid for our generosity, as we ran after the ball and didn't keep an eye on other players. I think we had deserved to win it.
Some of the positions we took were positive, others not so much. We tried to build from the back with a three-man defence, but that can change with a different opponent such as Roma next week.
After only a few days of training, I did see some of the ideas we had worked on and that bodes well for the future, even if there is a lot of work to be done.
I had hoped for a gift this evening for my birthday, but I saw some good things and I hope we can learn from these mistakes."
