AC Milan boss Vincenzo Montella was satisfied with his players in their friendly defeat to Borussia Dortmund.

The Rossoneri were beaten 3-1 by the Germans in China earlier today.

“We can't look at the result," Montella said in the mixed zone after the match.

“I saw a team with application and character. There are things we need to work on, but the spirit is always the same.

“We suffered at time, but we reacted and the young players also did well.

“Hakan Calhanoglu? He's a very talented player, he can ignite the play. He has great application and he wants to improve, we hope he can express his full potential soon.

“As for Leonardo Bonucci, he's now one of us in every respect. It was a great signing by the club and we're happy to have him with us."
