AC Milan defender Phillippe Mexes has stated that the Scudetto holders must learn from the mistakes they made against Viktoria Plzen in the Champions League Group H clash on Tuesday, especially with Sunday's game against Bologna in mind.
Two quick-fire goals at the start of the second half from Alexandre Pato and Robinho gave Massimiliano Allegri's men what looked like an unassailable 2-0 lead, but strikes in the 89th and 93rd minutes from the hosts saw the spoils shared in a 2-2 draw.Viktoria Plzen claimed third place in Group H of the Champions League and a spot in the Europa League after securing a dramatic 2-2 draw with AC Milan on Tuesday night.
Late, late goals from David Bystron and Michal Duris cancelled out Alexandre Pato and Robinho's earlier strikes as the hosts completed a stunning late comeback in Prague.
With their progression already certain, Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri took the opportunity to rest players, including Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva, but their makeshift defence was put to the test in the early stages as the hosts made an energetic start. But despite their hunger and drive, Viktoria Plzen struggled to find the necessary quality in the final third. The France international defender wants the Scudetto holders to take lessons from the 2-2 draw against the Czech side and avoid making the same errors against Bologna
