Siena vs Fiorentina Italy Series A 12BET Prediction 12/21 1AM GMT+8

AC Milan defender Daniele Bonera happy with win over Siena

The 30-year-old was pleased with the character shown by his team-mates to overcome Giuseppe Sannino's determined strugglers and go top of Italy's Serie A on Saturday

Massimilano Allegri's team met heavy resistance but ultimately bagged the three points courtesy of a fine strike by Antonio Nocerino and a penalty from Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

After the game, 30-year-old Bonera underlined his side's determination and ability to rise to the occasion when it mattered most.

"It was a difficult game. Siena defended well, but we managed to show character, and it was much easier after the goal," the defender told Sky Sports.

The former Parma man, who played at right back for AC Milan in the game, insisted that whilst he prefers to play in the centre of the defence, he is ready to help fill holes elsewhere at the back.

He continued: "I consider myself a centre-half, I hope I can be given a chance at that position. However, I am always available to help out wide, if the coach wants me to."

Bonera also had a word on the league standings, following AC Milan's ascension to the top.

"Now we have to wait and see how the others [Juventus and Udinese] fare, we are first for tonight."
Milan have a one point lead in Serie A, but Juventus can leapfrog them with a positive result against Novara on Sunday afternoon.- http://www.goal.com
