AC Milan continue to be on the wrong end of major decisions in European competitions, and yet there is nothing to suggest UEFA are familiar with the trend.
La Gazzetta dello Sport writes how the penalty for Chelsea and the red card given to Fikayo Tomori in the 18th minute of last night’s game not only ruined a potentially very entertaining spectacle but it also stopped Milan from earning more money from that game (if they had got a result) and also throws qualification for the round of 16 into jeopardy.

Daniel Sieber was the man in charge last night, but fans will remember how last season Milan were penalised in the two matches with Porto and – above all – in the home game against Atletico Madrid. There were two fouls in the build-up to the Portuguese side’s goals, while the red for Kessie and the dreadful handball call handed the Spaniards an undeserved win.
The current Milan from the leadership down to the players is different to that of Silvio Berlusconi’s time as they prefer to focus on happening on the pitch rather than politics. Paolo Maldini does not like to raise his voice even though he knows that he could be heard very clearly at the offices of UEFA were he to launch into criticism.
The paper states that UEFA must now provide an explanation to Milan, otherwise it almost seems that this series of mistakes is normal, or even that the Rossoneri are being deliberately punished. Mistakes are costly, especially when they happen time after time.
As if the greedy bastards of UEFA gives one sh it that we get robbed because of bad refs!
Superleague needs to Happen, Soon. UEFA lost credibility a long time ago.
EVERY crucial UCL match gets screwed for Milan? There is NO WAY this is a coincidence. No explanation is needed from UEFA. They can go su*ck Khelaifi di_ck.
At first i thought Milan got robbed by this bad referee because of Super League. But I remembered even back in 2012-13 we already got these bad referee decisions when we faced Barca, like UEFA already controlled the referee to make Milan at disadvantage and failed 🙁
Now i’m agree that Super League needs to be happen because UEFA is just greedy and corrupt mf’s.
Bro, I remember those Barca fixtures back then.
Wasn’t there a penalty given even before Xavi had taken the corner kick in one game? If I remember correctly.
Damn I remember coming into those fixtures knowing that we’re gonna have to climb back up from a penalty, mind you that team never ever needed a hand from the ref because they were so good.
Lol, I remember that Barca period very well, just left a sour taste in my mouth all over again.
True.. i rememeber well. Also a chl quarter or semifinal 2nd leg against away to barca
shevchenko equalised 1-1 away and the ref gave a freekick to barca, for a foul commited by shevchenko on Puyol.
we lost 1-0 and went out since the first game ended 0-0 in san siro. If you see the clip we got robbed big time.
It was semifinal 2005/2006 2nd leg
We need the Super League. Even if we won’t take part in it, corrupted UEFA needs a competitor and we need an alternative. Monopoly is never good.
Somebody check the Referee’s bank account now
