Ancelotti: We Played Well
Carlo Ancelotti believes Milan did everything they could during the 2-1 defeat tonight and does not want any action taken against Celtic after a fan ran onto the pitch and attacked Dida.
The game at Celtic was a rather dull affair with very few clear-chances. Scott Mcdonald scored the winner for the Bhoys in the 90th minute after Dida fumbled a shot from Gary Caldwell.
The Brazilian keeper, who was also at fault for Celtic's first goal, was then attacked by a Scottish fan who had run onto the pitch to celebrate Mcdonald's goal. Contact seemed very minimal but Dida was stretchered off and Celtic may now face action from UEFA.
"I don't know what happened in the incident with Dida," said Ancelotti. "I want to see what Dida has to say. Watching it on TV it didn't look very serious.
"For sure a supporter shouldn't be going onto the pitch but being awarded the three points as punishment I don't even want to consider it.
"As for the game, we played well on a very difficult pitch. It was very slippery due to the heavy rain and we couldn't have done anymore than what we did.
"We didn't concede any chances, we are just paying at the moment for the mistakes we are making.
"However I must say that Scottish football is growing fast - just look at Rangers' victory in Lyon last night."
