More concerning developments continue to filter after AC Milan’s defeat against Fiorentina at the Stadio Artemio Franchi last night, including Christian Pulisic’s reaction to coming off.
It was not a good night at all for Milan as they fell to a second straight defeat after losing to Bayer Leverkusen in midweek. They failed to convert two penalties that Theo Hernandez and Tammy Abraham took, then Fikayo Tomori made an error before Albert Gudmundsson’s winner.
What dominates the headlines this morning is the fact that Paulo Fonseca confirmed after the game that neither Theo nor Abraham were meant to take penalties, because Pulisic is the designated man from the spot.
Today’s edition of Tuttosport (via MilanNews) has the following headline this morning: “Pulisic to Fonseca: ‘Why, why?’.” The newspaper recalls the anger of the American winger when he found out that he and Rafael Leao were both coming off when the team needed a goal.
After the match, the Milan coach explained the substitution of the former Chelsea man and that of Leao as follows: “The substitution of Rafa was my choice. I wanted more depth with Okafor. I was afraid for Pulisic because he had a problem with his flexor during the week.”
JAJAJAJJA REPITO!!!! QUIEN ACÁ APOYA A ÉSTE PERDEDOR (FONSECA)? 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🇵🇹🤡
Fonseca is too much in love with Morata and Tammy lol.
Why indeed? – this is not the behaviour of a competent coach..
Fonseca must be an Interista at this point
