JUST IN:Milan Team Faces Criticism After a Playing Against Cagliari- Coach Fonseca Revealed An Unexpected Desire For Club.
Milan continued their inconsistent form under Paulo Fonseca with a frustrating 3-3 draw against Cagliari on Saturday. Despite falling behind early, the Rossoneri managed to turn the game around, only to concede a late equalizer that left them disheartened once again.
Gabriele Zappa’s 89th-minute volley infuriated Fonseca, who criticized his team after the match. He revealed a troubling statistic, admitting that Milan lost 69% of aerial duels at Unipol Domus.
This was just one of many issues. Milan appeared vulnerable defensively from the start, with Nadir Zorta putting Cagliari ahead in the second minute, exploiting Milan’s habit of poor early performances.
Opta statistics show that Milan has conceded a league-high ten goals in the first five minutes across the last three Serie A seasons, which is unacceptable for a team aiming for top honors. Such a weak defensive start signals a lack of focus and organization.
Fonseca must address this problem, as these early mistakes not only shake the team’s confidence but also put them under intense pressure. With the international break coming up, the Milan coach has two weeks to resolve the issue before a crucial match against rivals Juventus on November 23. If not, Milan could find themselves in trouble, lingering near the edge of European qualification.
