Mancini: "We all contributed, not just me"

Here's what the Italian defender had to say...

You decided it again tonight, following your goal in the derby.

"Yes, but we all contributed, not just me. Even those on the bench and those who came on. It was a good game, but it's still wide open against a great team. Now there's Udinese, followed by another important. game at the Olimpico.”

This team has grown a lot, and everyone understands what they need to do. Tonight, you made few mistakes and won on merit.

"Yes, we have not won here since 2017. As I mentioned on Saturday, winning the derby motivates you to do even better. When I see Dybala, Lukaku, and El Shaarawy chasing hard, I know we can win. We did well, and that makes us more aware. We have a big game on Thursday, and everything is still open.”

Not everyone can score two goals in a row in a few days.

"I'm happy. I've had days when people were talking about me. Winning the derby and now at San Siro. Playing with confidence as a true team, without fear of being closed down. We did it. It’s been a great evening from everyone. I couldn't really ask for better.
