Alphadjo Cissé focused on the victory of AC Milan against RB Salzburg (4-0), in the game of the 2nd round of the league of the Europa League, by completing a Hattrick, deserving the most torn praises of various figures of Italian football, including Fabio Capello. In the opinion article signed on Friday in the newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, the experienced technician proved to be surrendered to the talent of the young advanced. 

 

“It’s a young talent that makes me completely surrendered. This boy is not a spearhead, but he has a goal in his blood, because he realizes when the opportunity comes, he positions himself in the right place and finishes. It is a natural gift”, started by defending Capello, asking for time and patience for Cisse.

“ Let us leave him alone and, above all, we do not give him too many responsibilities: it is very good, but he cannot solve all the problems of Milan, which, however, also counted on Gonçalo Ramos goals ", shot the former coach of AC Milan.

These compliments from Capello arrived shortly after Cisse was directly questioned by the experienced coach on the Sky Sport antenna. 

“Make three goals is not easy in international competitions. I was watching you during the game, and sometimes when you had the ball on your feet, you'd throw it back when you could move it forward. Don't win that habit, because in the first games you played for Milan, you played forward. Do it again. Don’t make me angry, because I believe in you,” Capello said, with Cisse taking the advice between laughter. 

Capello also pointed out “other positive points”, which include “Tomori (finally back), Loftus-Cheek, Jashari and the interesting Hutchinson”, not forgetting the case of Camarda, who was also a titular, but who stayed away from signing an inspired exhibition. 

“ We will not crucify Camarda, which even pleased me very much, despite not having been able to enroll the name in the list of markers ", said Fabio Capello. 

Amorim also left praise to Cisse 

Ruben Amorim also praised Cisse publicly, but made a point of remembering that he is still a young player and that there is still much work to be done.

“My merit? He owes me nothing and deserves the space he's got. It could be explosive. It still has to improve on some aspects on the physical level, let's say, but it has a lot of heart. He needs to get better at practice and during games, but tonight all the compliments go to him. Hattrick is incredible and has enormous potential”, the Portuguese technician argued, in a press conference.

About the victory reached against Salzburg, Amorim stressed the importance of a categorical victory, but refused to enter the euphoria. 

“ We've scored goals, we've populated the area a lot, and that's important. But looking at the show in general, I think we've made better games. Before our third goal, for example, we put the ball in our own area and had some problems. Of course, you often only look at the result. I think we should and could have avoided some situations and that we still have a lot to improve. Still, it was a beautiful night and we took this victory home”, Amorim analyzed, in statements to Sky Sport. 

One more for the list: Amorim bet complete Hattrick and makes history

Alphadjo Cissé completed a Hattrick in the Milan AC victory imposed on RB Salzburg (4-0), in the Europe League, and in the end completed another item of his already enviable list of achievements.
