MILAN (Reuters) - AC Milan forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic, scorer of both goals in their 2-1 derby win over AC Milan on Saturday, admitted that having to stay at home for two weeks was tough after he tested positive for COVID-19.

"Your rhythm drops completely, and the body starts to tremble because it wants to train and play," he said. "I was stuck at home for two weeks, it wasn't easy, mentally it's tough especially with the high tempo we had beforehand."
