AC Milan Drops Points Again in Serie A. On Sunday, October 6, AC Milan suffered a narrow 1-2 defeat to Fiorentina, continuing their disappointing run in Serie A. The match was not without controversy.
Milan was awarded two penalties during the game, but both were missed. First, Theo Hernández failed to convert, followed by Tammy Abraham, who also missed his chance.
After the match, head coach Paulo Fonseca confirmed that Christian Pulisic is the designated penalty taker for the team, raising concerns about the players’ adherence to the new coach’s instructions.
“Pulisic is the penalty taker. I don’t know why they decided to take them. I said this must not happen again,” the Portuguese manager stated.
Following the match, Paulo Fonseca expressed his frustration with the officiating, describing the situation as a “circus.”
Notably, Fiorentina’s goalkeeper, David De Gea, made two crucial penalty saves during the match.
