AC Milan moved to the top of the Serie A table following their 1-0 away win.
“It’s nice to see my side top of the league,” Allegri declared to SkySport.
“We played a great first half this evening and deserved our lead at the break.
“In the second period, Parma came fighting back and I think we dropped the tempo a little at times.
“Overall I was happy with the manner in which the boys regained control in the dying minutes. It was understandable that we wouldn’t be able to keep up our early pace for the entire 90 minutes but we need to learn to close out games.
“I was pleased with the way my side utilised the diamond [formation] this evening and given that it led to our first win on the road this term, it certainly worked for us on the night.”
