Gattuso: Fragile Milan must recover mental strength for Champions League push

AC Milan head coach Gennaro Gattuso accepts his side are showing signs of fragility but urged them to stay calm in the race for Champions League qualification.

Kevin Lasagna equalised after Krzysztof Piatek's opener to earn Udinese a 1-1 draw at San Siro on Tuesday, leaving Milan without a win in their last three Serie A games.

Milan are clinging on to fourth place, the Italian top-flight's final Champions League qualification spot, having looked certain to return to Europe's elite club competition following a run of five straight wins prior to their sudden slump.
