AC Milan boss Sinisa Mihajlovic was satisfied with their friendly defeat to Lyon.

Andrea Poli hit a wonder goal in the 2-1 loss.

“We knew that they were further ahead in pre-season preparations compared to us and we also changed system," said Mihajlovic.

“It's never pleasing to lose, but I can say I'm satisfied with the work we've done at this stage. We interpreted the game well, but we could've done better and we will do better.

“There are players who aren't yet in the right shape, but we tried to replicate some of the things we tried out in training.

“Milan will be ready physically, technically and tactically for the start of the season. The players who have yet to arrive, like Carlos Bacca, Luiz Adriano, Jeremy Menez and Cristian Zapata, can make the difference."
