It’s official, Milan have missed out on the Champions League AGAIN. Horrible display from start to finish, you could say, as they stopped playing after the goal in the 2nd minute.
Utter disaster. We should all brace ourselves for some big and negative changes this summer. Sales left right and centre. And who knows who will be the manager. Ah well. We saw this coming, didn’t we?
Five minutes added on.
Maignan saves a 1v1. Should have been 1-3 there. This is over for Milan. There is no way they can pull this off.
Milan truly need a miracle here. Even if they do get the equaliser, it wouldn’t be enough as things stand, so we have to assume they must win.
Gabbia clears/blocks the ball on the line. It’s ridiculous how Milan are playing right now. Tons of space for Cagliari to exploit.
Huge chance for Rabiot even if that’s a difficult finish, but he was so close to goal there!
Maignan with two really good stops to prevent Cagliari from scoring a third. So close to game over there.
On: Leao.
Off: Fofana.
Good chance for Pulisic but he fails to direct his header goalwards.
Juve are now in the lead too, Vlahovic with the goal. We are 6th as things stand…
On: Athekame, Modric, Fullkrug.
Off: Tomori, Jashari, Nkunku.
FYI, Milan are now out of the top four. To make matters worse, Roma and Como are both in the lead.
Too much protesting from the goalkeeper in the end.
Scrappy situation in front of goal, Maignan with a good save initially, but it’s eventually turned in by Rodriguez. Similar to the first goal in some way.
Milan 1-2 Cagliari
Stopped a pretty clear chance there, even if he didn’t think it was a yellow card, or even a foul.
Milan really need to pick themselves up here and get the job done. The first half was truly not good enough.
Milan 1-1 Cagliari
On: Pulisic.
Off: Gimenez.
😕 Level at the break after what was a really poor first half, despite the early goal.
🤔 Would you make any changes for the second half? pic.twitter.com/hlF4c9GhOB

Whistles at San Siro and rightfully so! What started so well turned into a nightmare first half, with really poor intensity, basically no chances created and a goal conceded. If anything, Cagliari were closer to taking the lead. So much more is needed.
One minute added on.
Really nicely combined there by Rabiot and Bartesaghi, but it’s a tough finish for Gimenez then.
Nearly a massive howler by Maignan, who dropped a seemingly easy cross and was rescued by Tomori.
Great ball by Rabiot to Fofana at the back post, but the midfielder doesn’t get enough power on the header.
Decent chance for Nkunku there, but the shot is straight at Caprile.
1-0 MILAN!!!!
Good job Santi and Salad.
Isn’t that Pioli’s assistant from his time at Milan on the Cagliari bench?
Amazing what happens when you have a focal point (Santi) in the box for others to make runs off of.
Ehhh i knew this won’t go without drama, but at least we have to push for win now and not hold on to 1-0 as usual
That’s how Allegri wants his matches. The opponent dominating and us watching them play.
Eh, wrong comment to reply. Sorry.
Fofana caught staring at the ball. Shocking defending
Momentum has shifted. Cagliari being dangerous and Milan not shaking the goal off
Getting outplayed at home by Cagliari. Embarrassing, This club is f*cked. Unless we get a rich Arab owner, nothing will change.
That’s how Allegri wants his matches. The opponent dominating and us watching them play. 🤦♂️
Thats it, good old Allegri fuckin’ ultradefensive attitude… And obviously a huge mistake on the back.
Thats it, good old Allegri fvckin’ ultradefensive attitude… And obviously a huge mistake on the back.
Playing for the 1-0 win after 5 minutes in yayyy
I don’t like Rabiot at all. In the last months he plays very bad. He’s not able to win any direct fight for the ball with any opponent. His passing are really bad. He’s in decline form.
he’s one of the worst passers I’ve ever seen, people don’t notice it because he runs around
The whole team is in shamble
We don’t have any style of playing, no flow, no schemes , this “team” looks like this guys don’t train together. Allegri is disaster…
They play with no hunger and bearing ..this is so so bad for team like Milan
Toothless team, this is infuriating and really frustrating to watch.
We can’t delete Cagliari in the last and most important match of the season? We don’t deserve Champions League
Look stats first halftime cagliari Ac Milan
How can anyone watch this team play and want the same coach back next season. In the last game of the season they look like they never played together before.
Hopefully Milan wins this game but Allegri cannot stay
how can anyone watch last seasons team play and want the same coach(es) back next season. In the last game of the season they look like they never played together before. Hopefully milan win this game and allegri stays and gets the players he wants
Oh yeah if he gets the players he wants, especially those rumored Milan will play much better. Lol.
Score a goal in the 2nd minute at home vs Cagliari and sit back and defend. I bet when he gets all the players he wants he will also change his tactics that he has had throughout his career. Lol
Allegri is only 8 points better currently than those 2 coaches from last season, while playing in 1 competition and winning zero trophies, or playing in Copa final.
majority of fans really are happy to see this for the next 2 years (plus Vlahovic and Goretzka of course)…I just don’t get it
Fofana off Ricci on
Nkunku off Puli on
Jashari off Modric on? Not sure Jashari has been good enough to stay or bad enough to leave and only Allegri knows of Modric is truly up to playing.
At least no assists for the opponent so far haha. Nah, I think he does well. Relatively.
This game shows you can’t just turn on being offensive. Players need to have worked together to know where they’ll be to make quick and dangerous runs. Why aren’t they giving the ball to Nkunku on the sidelines.
because with that guy in charge they won’t have trained with a ball all season
Exactly. At least practicing with a ball going forward.
These anemic, soft and low mentality players are a shame and embarrassment for history of this glorious club. And Allegri…I have no more words to describe my despise for him..
I’ll tell you one thing… If Milan fails to win (which looks more than likely), they don’t deserve to finish in TOP4 and Allegri MUST go. He has made the 2nd most victorious club in UCL play like they are a team from a tiny village with 3k people.
Udinese came and dominated at San Siro and now Cagliari who has nothing to play for is doing the same. And the worst thing is that Allegri gets his kicks from watching Milan players stand and watch how Cagliari keeps the ball and doesn’t even want to attack. Pathetic. Embarrassing. Fng ugly. Disgusting. Enough is enough!!!
I am one of those who want to see both Allegri and Tare continue with Milan but that is puerly beacuse I finally want some stability and consistency in this club. I’m tired of constant changes and revolutions thinking results will be immediate. But my god this is just horrible. I was expecting not something completely different tonight but at least something that would give me hope for the coming season. Not with this attitude and football.
What consistency?!?! We’re garbage.
Allegri, hey you dinosaur…change the fucking system to a 3-4-3 !!!
So, Cagliari comes to defend with simple enough instructions: don’t loose. They train for this since the last league match but alas, they concede in the first two minutes and thus have to attack. Lucky for them, the team they are playing against, having trained all week to do just what they have managed to accomplish: press for the ball and score early, suddenly decided to sit back and defend the one goal lead. Cagliari gets their equaliser and can now revert to what they trained all week for, sit back and don’t concede. Well done Allegro…Jeesuuss
…I actually prefer a new gaffer to be tested in Europa league come to think of it.
Sub was incorrect, Puli was supposed to replace Nkunku and not Gimenez. And on top of that, ofcourse that Juventus had to use some kind of shenanigans to start the match later, just watch us in Europa League next year, we don’t deserve better anyway. I’m so sorry for Modric, i know he loves Milan
Yes. Doesn’t seem to be a very useful decision.
One of the most untalented team of our history
Cool Tomori..
At least we can’t drop to seventh place….
Everyone loves Tomoei
😆😆😆 incredible…these clowns….
Are we seeing a fix. This ref has become terrible. Then they score.
Maybe it is for our own good. We qualify tonight we remain mediocre both in Serie A and in CL
We don’t qualify, we sell what’s worth selling, get more cheap deadwood and another yes man coach.
Get Guardiola give him whatever he wants. He wanted after all to coach in Italy. Perfect timing
We’re still owned by RedBird and not some filthy rich Arab
So that’s it. Another mas sale and another revolution. Groundhog day club.
This clown Allegri just can’t change anything . He doesn’t know anything other than this 3-5-2….. Absolutely incredible primitive coach…
milan is dead to me – easily the most pathetic team I have seen since I started supporting them in 2004 – no longer. Cardinali and his ignorant american stupidity has killed this club
disgusting
I’ll watch MLS now rather than the total embarrassment that Milan and Serie A have become
No Maldini No identity. Thats for sure!! Ciao UCL
Milan has to win to go top 4. Guys, we arent making it
Allegri needs to get the f*card off this team regardless.
So, 8th place to 6th.
progress lol
Silly of me to think this team could win today. What a disgrace.
I can’t watch this horrible team play,is awful good bye
If we bribed Cagliari to lose before the game, maybe, and that is a big maybe, we could salvage a draw here with this kind of game and attitude
Cagliari look like the team playing to get into UCL. SHAMEFUL!
If they don’t qualify for CL, this will be the biggest exodus and dismantle we’ve ever seen. Allegri, Tare followed by players Modrić, Rabiot, Maignan. Of course we cannot go without selling what’s worth – Leao, Pulišić, Pavlović.
Torriani
Athekame Winter Gabbia Bartesaghi
Fofana Ricci RLC
Saele Gimenez Nkunku
That’s official banter era team right there, lmao.
I’m so curious what is the 5 thing we learn after this game. I can’t wait for the article 😆😆😆
😂😂😂
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 bunch of clowns
Cagliari, nothing to lose, how dare we defend against such….
Allegri’s brain needs extra gigabyte
Crazy to think that in 4 years cardinale and furlani destroyed milan
…..to enrich their pockets.
Beyond anger, beyond disappointment, this game and it’s result is not altogether a terrible thing. Champions league would have flattered and misrepresented our dire truth. We are pathetic, and must react from that standpoint. For the American, Fire everyone, clean the slate and think really hard about what Milan represents, including the option of leaving Mr. Cardinale
We allowed them to take 19 shots, just for reference.
I am done with this trash football club I swear. Logging out, deleting this app and fucking off! They can wallow in their fucking mediocrity!
Fabregas gets last laugh at Allegri when Como plays UCL next season
Well deserved 6th place.
looking forward to more allegri ball next season lol
I don’t think so
Allegris Hatred of Fullkrug needs to be studied… hes been the only striker so far this season, especially the previous 3-4 matches thays shown to be useful in lineup play with the other attackers, yet does Allegri start him????? No, he starts a just back from surgery Gimenez whos barely fit enough to play and hasn’t put a ball in the net in MONTHS. What is his refusal to play fullkrug for???? Did nick bang his wife or something? Pitiful… just like his coaching
fullkrug is pish lol
como deserve champions league football to be fair.
I kind of can’t be this is actually happening this way. Who knows what this club will look like next year. Wild.
I would rather Milan play Europa league instead of UCL with Allegri. This man is too stubborn. We’re closing the season like we started it. A lost game when it could have been a win.
all out. but back all salary last year from all.
emberassing
Thank you! for watching
There better teams
I have no words.
Absolute embarrassment. This has held us back years now. Failed project failed team. All our stars are leaving now. The team will be back to banter era
It’s not beautiful but at least Allegri brings results, eh?!!!!! 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
FU, ALL YOU ALLEGRI-FANBOIS! You got what you deserved. ❤
The fault is only Allegri’s?
Which is why I’m not entirely mad. I wouldn’t want another season of that again. Ket Napoli have him. If rumors are true, getting rid of that CEO snake would be a good start for rebuilding. I hear Galliani in talk to return wouldn’t be bad either.
Cardinal has done enough of the F*ing around, now he’s in the finding out stage.
I’m not that mad either. Extremely disappointed but if missing UCL means sacking Allegri, then it’s definitely worth it.
Disgraceful team, disgraceful result.
😆😆😆 incredible…whaaaaat a bunch of anorexic clowns…😆😆
And Allegri…wow…whaaaat a dinosaur…
Cardinale….you deserve this !!!
This is the best thing to happen to Cardinale and his legacy so far. Banter ERA football with millions spent. Fantastic Work, Gerry.
To be honest considering how things is currently going the Banter era wasn’t that bad. We were broke. We made the best with what we had. What’s the excuse here aside from incompetence? Millions spent every year for a revolution, cardinale has to take responsibility for not listening to the fan because he’s been wasting money trusting incompetent employees.
yeees…. FY Gerry! … how is that financial scudeto looking?? Now sell all the good players and let’s go to Seria B. Moneyball Gerry, thinks this is baseball
After the final whistle of the 2026 campaign Milan have are not in the champions league so there has to be departures;
Scaroni – A good time to retire
Cardinale – You made one bad move by removing Maldini and has cost Milan severely so you must go.
Furlani – Was the pioneer behind the removal of Maldini and it is very clear he has been a complete disaster.
Ibrahimovic – A good player but has not lived up to expectations in the management team so off you go.
Tare – You and the management have spent 300m this year and Milan are the same as last year.
Moncada – Maldini will decide your future when he returns.
Allegri – Either retire or apply for the Italian job
I watched the whole second half laughing…
Allegri is always Allegri. you need to be in the champions league. Scored early goal and then seat back to defend unit you conceed a goal to level the score. He should have start with 4 3 3 knowing all you need is a win. Play your best players in their rightfully position and let them give you the win you need just for tonight and not only to convert in to 433 In the second half
Como who know they need to be play Champions league food kept on attacking and scoring goals.
Scoring Goals gives you winning not defending
Noticeably wrong when Allegri’s stuck with Leao and Pulisic…
Defending against Pisa, Hellas and the basement teams. So pathetic
Sell the dead wood players…. Get enough experienced free transfers players to make top four next season and save money to really invest in upper season for champions leave football.
I can’t imagine Milan playing against PSG, BM and etc.
Thank God we don’t qualify for CL.
Our target should not top 4.
Our target should be “playing a better football”
Excatly, like next year would have been worse. Bodo would have wiped the floor with this team.
I think they’re stuck with him.
