AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri believes his side were unfortunate to lose to Zenit St. Petersburg on Tuesday.
Portuguese star Danny scored the only goal after 35 minutes, however, Malaga's positive record against Milan meant that the Italians would finish second in Group C regardless of the result.
And it means Milan have still to win at home in Europe's premier competition this term but Allegri is adamant that record must be last Tuesday.
"We created many chances and played with a good pace but unfortunately we indulged in what was their only chance in the game," Allegri told Milan's official website.
"At this moment the objective is Torino (in the Serie A on Sunday), third place is still far away. We will think of each game as it comes, in the Italian cup also.
"Acerbi and Zapata played well and very little to Zenit admitted. We were not missing to bet, the team played well from a technical point of view, although the motivation may not have been the highest.
"We didn't deserve to lose all, I am disappointed for the players but we have to start not to concede goals. Twenty goals in 21 matches is too much, we must do better in certain situations.
"I am pleased with the individual performances including Mesbah and Ambrosini, who came back from injuries.
"We will see about Montolivo in the next few days, if there is no risk, he won't be on the field against Torino."
