Sky: Krunic withdrawn due to muscle discomfort as Milan’s crisis deepens

By Oliver Fisher -

As if the 1-0 defeat against Udinese at San Siro wasn’t enough, AC Milan’s injury situation might just have gotten worse as Rade Krunic suffered another muscle problem.

With the scoreline 0-0 at half-time, Stefano Pioli made two changes at the break with Noah Okafor and Yacine Adli coming on for Luka Jovic and Krunic, in what were presumed to be tactical alterations.

However, according to what was reported by Peppe Di Stefano on Sky (via MilanNews), Adli actually replaced Krunic at the start of the second half because the Bosnian felt some muscle discomfort.

In addition to that, he was on a yellow card having committed a foul inside the opening 20 minutes, so it was not a memorable evening for the former Empoli man.

Adli’s introduction was unable to make a real impact on the game, as Udinese ended up securing their first win of the season in smash-and-grab fashion thanks to Roberto Pereyra’s penalty.

  1. Krunic getting injured isn’t a crisis, it’s a chance for a saving grace. It goes to show Pioli management of players is so poor. Dude is horrible but let’s assume he is the bedrock of this team, the way Pioli has been using him after recovering from injury is just absurd and it translates to the whole team. Pioli is a poor manger of players and talents

  2. Permainan buruk bukan faktor para pemain, tapi pengelolaan. Visi misi club bukan hanya tertulis tapi adalah ruh apapun yang dimaksud dan dituju. Lihatlah udinese yang mengalahkan kita, berharap bisa mengembalikan milan yang kembali dihormati dengan perubahan manajemen yang lebih baik

  3. The only positiv thing from this game is posible Krunić absence from for some time.The guy is natural born desaster….how long will it take to sack him?….Is Pioli only one at ACM who is pushing this dead wood????I am Bosnian…but to look from game to game his back passes and terible ball technik at each kontakt is realy painfull….Am I only to see that?I wrote it on other topic yesterday…to start 4-4-2 with Jović who is out of form and Krunić who is techicaly worst player in league,while putting:RLC and Adli who plays in life form on bench is more brutal as Pioli normaly do.This ACM squad is stronger then ACM last year.Why is Pioli pushing constantly some weird defensive taktik,where you have several world class attackers?..I dont get it…No goal in three CL games,nothing against Juve,2:0 versus Napoli spoiled with changes in half time,0:1 against Udinese?!?!Same as always….60 minutes nothing,tempo slower then my dead grandmother,70-75 minute few exchanges,then “Run,Forest,run!”…..whole time,on each game….Run Forest after shity 70 mkinutes..that is teater!Juve,Inter start with full pressing at first minute…ACM at 75,while chasing result.Shame on you Pioli….shame on you mate…this team has CL potential,you are slowing them up…shame on you
