Roma coach De Rossi: We cannot simply defend our lead against AC Milan

AS Roma coach Daniele De Rossi says they will attack from the start against AC Milan.

Roma host the second-leg of their Europa League quarterfinal tie defending a 1-0 lead.

De Rossi said: "All the matches are important. Tomorrow it's important because I don't want it to end.

"Pellegrini said something that made me emotional: It's a path to be happy and what is more important than our joy, than our glory?

"How much I'm at risk, how long it will last, if we don't enjoy what we're doing? Since I arrived, I've had many happy days, I'm thinking about that, not about the possibility of renewal based on tomorrow's result.

"The only thing about managing the result is to be intelligent, not to go too far. If we are at 0-0 in the last minute, we won't go looking for a goal. We will try to win from the start, be able to score goals for them it would be a tough blow. But if we get them inside the area, their goal will come sooner or later. We'll play a similar match to the first leg, but the difference will be the dirty balls as well as our quality in the final metres."
