AC Milan defeated Perth Glory 9-0 in a friendly match in Australia , but coach Allegri said that players should not get too excited when they make good progress during the season, nor fall into frustration when it is difficult, and should find a balance mentally and emotionally.

In the first half of the match against Perth Glory, goals from Terraciano, Okafor, Comotto and Chukueze gave AC Milan a 5-0 lead. In the second half, goals from Leao, Samuel Ritchie and Moussa also gave AC Milan a 9-0 victory over Perth Glory.

AC Milan coach Allegri said, "We have had good training in these 25 days and performed well in friendly matches. We are satisfied with everything we have done so far. After returning to Italy, we must realize that it is the real beginning of the season and everything will change."

"The players trained with passion, which is the most important thing, and they took the match seriously and put on a great show for the Australian fans."

In the first round of the 2025/26 Serie A season, AC Milan will face Cremona at the San Siro Stadium and will then participate in the UEFA Champions League.

Allegri said, "We must face the game step by step. We can't get too excited just because things are going well, because there will always be difficult periods in the season, and we can't fall into frustration at those moments. Compared to the tactical point of view, the key is psychological balance. A season is like a 38-game journey, and we must always maintain a steady rhythm."

"We have two friendlies to play in Dublin and London before a big Coppa Italia match."
