(Reuters) - AC Milan manager Stefano Pioli said he respected the silent protest carried out by thousands of frustrated fans during Sunday's 3-3 Serie A draw against Genoa.
With second-placed Milan left trophyless for a second successive season and trailing champions and city rivals Inter Milan by 18 points, irritated fans unfurled banners demanding improvements to the team, while the hardcore ultras stayed silent in protest throughout Sunday's encounter.
