Source context
Maurizio Sarri, Atalanta coach, spoke to Sky Sport after the match in which La Dea were defeated 3-2 by Milan at San Siro. During the interview, he complained about referee Chiffi's officiating. Here are his full statements. "We pressed with little intensity in the first half, and so we found ourselves in a bit of difficulty. Despite this, the first big goalscoring chance of the match was ours with Krstovic. Then there were also incidents that went against us, because the ball hit a defender's arm three times: twice in our penalty area, and VAR intervened, and once in Milan's penalty area, and VAR did not intervene.
