A video has surfaced which seems to show that Fikayo Tomori and Tammy Abraham conspired to ensure that the latter took the second penalty against Fiorentina last night.
The story that seems to be dominating the media headlines this morning concerns the issue of who takes penalties for Milan after Christian Pulisic was confirmed as the designated taker of spot kicks by Paulo Fonseca after the game.
The Rossoneri got two penalties and Pulisic took neither, with Theo Hernandez and Abraham each seeing efforts saved by David De Gea either side of the half-time interval.
Now, a clip has begun circulating on social media which seems to show Tomori and Tammy – two former Chelsea players – getting the ball after a foul on Matteo Gabbia to ensure that the striker took it while Pulisic was stood nearby confused.

Shameful. That’s actually embarrassing to see
Disgusting!!!
This team I don’t understand their system of playing. And hw can u remove pulsic ND leão ND keep Abraham that is doing nothing. Pls instead of using Abraham up front use mortal.
Clan team ,nice
Tomori is a dumb-arse.. get rid
and also, it says as much about Abraham as it does Tomori — my ball shorty – tch
The designated penalty taker has taken, and made, 1 of 1 this season. Theo, Tomori and Tammy (perhaps more) clearly do not respect Fonseca. Sadly, it is getting easier to see that changes are needed. Will management back the children or the coach?
Pulisic has made 10 out of 10 in his career. But for what use if he isn’t BFF with Tomori?
I agree with you they don’t respect Fonseca, if I were him Tomori would be benched the next two games as he has been woeful as well, Abrahams should be benched for Okafor let him get a chance from the start. Pulisic is too timid to be a captain for Milan, Tomori and Theo are not captain material either, we need morata or maignan to be the elders in this team and quickly, we have talent but seriously lack leadership.
Absolutely Mike should be captain of this team
I don’t understand why Pavlovic isn’t playing
Tomori was a disaster against Inter
It’s clear we need a change of culture and we need to sell some of these guys. That’s shameful.
If you steal someone else’s PK you better make goddamn sure you bury the shot in the net and not at the keeper FFS! Never again, Tammy. Never again in this shirt!
Tomori – the captain vs Lazio
Theo – the vice-captain in general
Leao – the captain vs Lecce and a few games last season
Yeah, no.
Pulisic is like ronaldinho compared to those two jelous piece of sh.
Amazing. After the water bottle gate, now the penalty gate. With Zlatan as halftime show and Fonseca getting less respect than a prison guard. The US fans are right, this is going in the right direction. Are you not entertained?
Yes bartho. This is hollywood show. To make sure milan always in spotlight, with something like this, this trophyless cardinale milan will always famous, even though they got zero trophy.
Ibra, leao, theo, tomori, and tammy keep up the great work our stars drama. You make this trophyless cardinale milan famous.
You can add cardinale as our stars drama. The event to fired maldini also great show, full drama.
After maldini get scudetto, then semifinal champions league. Nobody expect maldini get fired. From peak to bottom, Hollywood dramatic show.
Keep up the great work mr cardinale.
Dude, I know you get off on hating US fans, and then claim you don’t hate anything about the US, but it’s getting kind of boring. Nobody wants this. Not US fans, and not holier than thou French fans who live in Milan, supposedly.
👍🏼 to your post.
When Milan will win i know it’ll be the worst day ever for you

Time for a fire sale.
I can understand that Tomori who’s been friends with Abraham for probably 20 odd years wanted to help out his struggling friend and gift him an easy goal scoring opportunity.
But in the end he made it worse for both of them. Expecting Gabbia/Pavlovic next game…
I understood it last time when Leao wanted Tammy to take a pk, for confidence, because Milan was up 2-0 already. Even Tammy said after that game that Pulisic is the penalty taker. Pulisic obviously should have taken both pks being that Milan was behind but the second ones optics look so much worse. Tomori jumping high to grab the ball and hand it right to Abraham whilst Pulisic tries to do his job and come take the pk. Both Abraham and Tomori shouldn’t be in the squad next game.
We need to sanction Tomori after this incident. Totally village football mindset.
Yes, and all other mistakes he makes. The second goal was all his. Unbelievably bad not to get an unchallenged header there…
This Milan is not a team and Fonseca is not a strong leader in the dressing room. It’s time to get rid of few players and managers.
Starting with Ibra, Moncada and Furlani. Then working our way down to the coach and players after a proper CEO and Sporting Director is appointed.
This is disgraceful and disgusting behavior.
Bench Tomori and put Pavlovic and sell Tomori in January! Tomori jumped higher to get the ball, then he jumped when he needed to clear the ball where we conceded due his failure. Who t‘f thinks abraham is ! Pulisic or Reijnders shall shoot. Sell this cancers and dont buy Abraham.
Pulisic or Morata. No one else.
Its absolutely pathetic that a bunch of professional football players who has dedicated their life to the sport can’t see how deplorable their behavior is when disregarding the coach’s decisions. When I played football I was the captain and even amongst a bunch of amateurs they would know not to step out of line and even if I had to do some mediating between players and the coach from time to time they also knew that there would be nothing to gain by acting outward in regard of his decisions.
The question here isn’t whether Fonseca is fit for the job or not but that they simply has to comply to what he says whether they like it or not. If players cant show that sort of professionalism and commitment they can all leave the club regardless whoever ends up as the next coach which probably isn’t too far away to happen either.
One thing is to lose a match which is expected to happen from time to time but dragging the club and its crest down the gutter is a completely different matter. Gotta say I find it increasingly difficult to cheer on modern day sportsmen who has bigger egos and salaries than talents.
Clearly, these guys didn’t take the opponent or the game seriously enough. Thinking hey, we can let anyone take these PK cause we’re gonna score later is the wrong attitude.
What did they say to Pulisic now? sorry bruh?
Lots going out in that locker room I bet
Abraham is a better taker than Pulisic is just that he missed it. Tomori did it because he thought Abraham can’t missed it. Why the chaos again? Let’s move on please
Because Abraham can’t score a non pk goal and is lacking confidence. Pulisic is the designated pk taker and has been lights out. That’s the problem.
Because its not their choice to make on their own unless the coach actually has allowed them to do such choices which he clearly hasn’t allowed if you read his post match interview.
Its basically mutiny and definitely punishable in my book.
Puli is 10/10 from the spot and blatantly, I mean it’s not even close, the best and most consistent player on the team. But please, continue your favoritism because of where you’re from
Based on what???
Pulisic has never missed for club and country
But for some reason Abraham is still better penalty taker – even with all the misses 😀 😀 😀 😀
Abraham is 17/21 for club and country. Pulisic is 11 for 11.
Abraham’s record is fairly good, but Pulisic’s is perfect.
Abraham isn’t a better taker
He’s weakmind trash
Pulisic has been scoring world class goals since last season. He’s never missed a pk. He’s the designated pk taker. He’s the only attacking player in form for Milan. He still scored a world class goal yesterday after the 2 botched pk attempts to get it level. No one but Pulisic should EVER take a pk again. Fonseca needs to make an example and leave Abraham and Tomori out of the squad next game. Don’t even give them a spot on the bench.
children
This Fonseca guy managed to ruin the club in less than 2 months:
1. He didn’t want Kalulu – now Kalulu is playing great in Juventus
2. He didn’t want Adli – Adli plays great at Fiorentina and even scored against us
3. He didn’t want Jovic who never made any problems in club, instead he wanted Abraham – now Abraham stole the penalty from Pulisic and we lost because of his selfishness but more imporantly it is clear now that there is no harmony in club and that anyone is doing whatever he wants. Pulisic probably took a step back because he knows that Abraham is Fonseca’s sweetheart
4. He benched Palovic in favour of Tomori – now Tomori is creating clans in club (with Abraham) and playing horrible defence for several games in a row
5. Hernandez seems to be unhappy and very nervous playing under Fonseca – I am pretty much sure he will ask himself to leave in January already
6. Leao seems confused more than ever as he can’t understand what Fonseca wants from him – this is because Fonseca has no talent to clearly pass the message to his players
7. We have zero points in Chanpions League and are at the very bottom of the table
8. Fans are heavily disappointed and for a reason
I said it already, because we somehow won that match against Inter, Fonseca stayed – instead of being fired. Maybe it was actually a strategy from Inter and Inzaghi, to lose a game so Fonseca can stay, because they immediately saw that Fonseca will ruin everything that Pioli has done well so far. We are not competitive in any competition.
Leao hasn’t been consistent in his entire career. The fans also wanted Adli out because they said he wasn’t Milan quality. So can’t blame the manager for everything going on. And I don’t think Puli willingly took a step back. More of a pick your battles approach. But besides that I agree on everything stated.
If we won that game yesterday we would have been tied for 2nd in the league. Not competitive???
More disgraceful behavior from our players!!
This is where having someone like Maldini is so important, he was respected as a player, a man, a legend.
Now these players respect/fear nobody!
Theo should be fined for his sending off.
Tomori should be dropped and fined for his Mutiny.
Abraham, F_CKING ABRAHAM, YOU DONT EVEN BELONG TO MILAN< WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!
Pulisic – grow some balls man
Fonseca – nobody listens to you so you are ineffective, I will say for the 1st time, he should be fired now, we have some weeks to replace him.
Moncada – you are honestly the main issue, look at the mess you have made, I hope you are fired soon also.
Please take Emerson with you, keep the 15m, it's gone now anyway
No more rotating armbands and penalties, this is not a F_CKING school playground!!
Next game
Mike
Calabria Thiaw Gabbia Pavlovic
Musah Fofana Reijnders
Pulisic Morata Leao
SJF, I agree 100 percent with you. Calabria is 100 times better than Emerson Royal and Pavlovic much better than Tomori. Gabbia should be our captain, if Calabria does not play, and Okafor should be the best alternative to Abraham. Think if we kept Calulu…
Absolutely Gabbia for captain!
He is probably the only player who can hold his head high walking the streets of Milan and interacting with fans (big part of being captain).
Pulisic and Gabbia are the lone consistent bright spots on this team
Pulisic also deserves to walk with pride in Milano
F*ck off you godd@mned Calabria simps
You are literally Anti-Milan fans
This clown is one of the worst players in Milan history and easily the worst Milan captain ever
I’m so glad he got caught with that Ultras controversy
Maybe we will finally get rid of this fodder leech
Theo, tomori and tammy not just disrespected fonseca but also disrespected pulisic! The 3 of them should at least put on the bench for the next 2 games,that is if fonseca has enough balls!
These images hurt ten times as much as the result of the game. Between Fonseca and Ibra, they had better get control of this and make sure changes are made.
They can’t sell multiple players, but start a little weeding out in January by selling Theo and buying a replacement. Bench Tomori
NOW, not only because of this, but he has also been playing poorly.
Pavlo and Gabbia in the back from now on.
Ibra himself has taken a penalty from the designated penalty taker when he played for Sweden.
Ibra can take Tammy and Tomori with him and get out.
i remember in the first matches, Fonseca himself said that players should among themselves decide who take penalties, and now he is crying out. shame on him
He just catch the ball and give it to the Tammy, doesn’t mean they are against Puli 😀 but yes this was bad decision from Tammy and there need to be consequences… ( not just 3 point down) but also from others from management…oh shit we are on the way to hell…now it is still time to save this season but changes must be made immediately… mentality is worse then in Frosinone in Seria B
Leao needs to be away from Theo
Unbelievable. Watch and you can see Abraham wag his finger saying you don’t get to take this kick. That’s not just disrespectful, but unprofessional, arrogant, stupid, and he KNEW Pulisic was the chosen penalty taker. Abraham should be gone. Period.
This only happens when the players don’t respect the coach.
I said it before – although I’m glad we beat Inter in the derby – unfortunately that only prolonged the inevitable with Fonseca. He should not be our coach. This was a huge mistake on a long list of them by management.
Take away that victory over Inter and what are our wins??? Terrible. Coach should be replaced immediately and so should management (although that will never happen)
What a disaster this management and ownership group has made us
Pls Gerry sell more than 22% of your shares. Pls sell them all
To add statistics to this argument, in all competitions over the past five seasons, not including this one, Pulisic has made 7 penalties, missed none, with another one made this season; Abraham made 3, missed none, then made and missed one this season; Morata made 8, missed 4 and has taken none this season; Hernandez made 4, missed 3 and missed another this season. Clearly, the only one that should take penalties is Pulisic.
Disgraceful team, timid coach and lack of focus management team.
The Italian guys are raining hail on Abraham and tomori, am expecting same energy for the day Paulisic loses a penalty and Milan looses the game.
“Paulisic” could miss a penalty, yes. But that’s not the point. Abraham with Tomori’s help took a penalty shot that Abraham was not entitled to. End of discussion.
Pathetic bring ethnicity into this. not about Abraham missing. It’s the fact that he should have taken it in the first place and the way it came about!!!!
Imagine it was white players that did this. Everyone would be shouting ‘racism’ by now. Tomori,Abraham should be punished and benched for next match
They acting like kids, very embarrassing and unprofessional.
