ROME, Oct. 23 (Xinhua) -- AC Milan head coach Massimiliano Allegri said that substitutes were the key to his side's comeback 4-3 win over Lecce on Sunday.
As Milan fell behind 3-0 in the first half, Kevin-Prince Boateng came off the bench and scored a hat-trick in 14 minutes, before Mario Yepes nodded in a late winner.
"It is an important victory in a difficult arena 1, even if we conceded too much in defence. The substitutions were the only way to change the game," said Allegri.
"I knew this squad 2 had the potential to do it. After the break, with Lecce losing intensity 3, Milan put in a great performance.
"We got a bit chaotic 4 on the first goal, then the penalty and an unlucky third made life very difficult for us," said the Coach of their 4-3 thriller 5.
"The fact remains 6 we were too stretched out and couldn't do anything in the first half, partly because Lecce worked harder and constantly doubled up on us.
"We scored straight after the restart and rode the wings of enthusiasm to put the game back on track," he said.
