The failed coach of AC Milan, Paulo Fonsecaaccused the referee Federico La Penna for not showing his team enough respect after Atalanta beat them 2-1 in Serie A. A stunning late goal from Ademola Lookman left Atalanta celebrating a 2-1 victory after a heated clash.
“I’m not afraid to tell the truth. I always respect the work of the referees, I realize that they have a difficult job, but every week it’s the same,” said Fonseca to ‘Sky Sport Italia’. “The way the referee acted tonight was a disrespect for Milan.”
Fonseca gave as an example the first goal, where former Milan player Charles De Ketelaere jumped high to head the ball. However, the visitors expressed concern, claiming that De Ketelaere pushed Theo Hernandez into the jump. “The first goal was a clear foul, no doubt. The way the referee directed the whole game was against Milan,” said Fonseca.
