The outcome of the entire game hinged upon a crucial decision that the German referee Daniel Siebert made inside the opening 20 minutes. He sent Fikayo Tomori off and gave a penalty kick to the away side after he adjudged the defender to have hauled back Mason Mount when through on goal.
After Jorginho admitted that the red card was harsh, Mount himself reflected on the incident during an interview with Chelsea’s official channels and even he claimed that the penalty was a contentious incident and a red card was very harsh.
Bennacer spoke to UEFA after the game last night and he gave his thoughts on what was a difficult game after the major incident, with his comments relayed by MilanNews.
“It wasn’t the best night, after the red card it was tough. But we have to keep our heads up. We still have chance to pass the turn, we will give our best,” he said.
