AC Milan on right path despite rare Lazio loss, insists Pioli

Despite suffering their first Serie A defeat at home against Lazio since 1989, Pioli is adamant the Rossoneri are on the right track

AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli believes his side are moving in the right direction despite suffering a sixth loss in just 11 Serie A matches this season.

Lazio beat Milan 2-1 at San Siro on Sunday, Joaquin Correa's 83rd-minute winner proving decisive as the victors climbed to fourth in the standings.

Milan remained mired in midtable mediocrity, sitting 11th, and they are already eight points off the European places and 16 behind leaders Juventus.
