AC Milan coach Stefano Pioli insists they can beat Roma tonight.

Milan trail 1-0 as they visit Roma for the second-leg of their Europa League quarterfinal.

Pioli said: It's annoying to lose games, comments are normal.

Judgements often depend on the final result, but that was another game. We have rewatched it and we know what we must do. Even if we face different situations tomorrow, I am sure the lads will know how to prevent them.

The game is so important that the guys know how to play it. The only thing that matters is to play and win.

Pioli added: The fairest [first leg] result would have been a draw, but it didn't happen. Roma were better than us in some details, but if we improve in some little things, we can make the difference. The first half was not adequate, but we could have levelled the score after the break. I know my players well, and I trust them."
