The image of Theo Hernandez and Rafael Leao during the cooling break apart from the rest of the group has caused discussion. At the end of the match at the Olimpico which ended 2-2 between Lazio and Milan with goals from Pavlovic and Leao for the Rossoneri and from Castellanos and Dia for the Biancocelesti, Max Ambrosini commented on the episode to the microphones of DAZN:
“There’s no point in beating around the bush – the former midfielder of the Red Devils began – the discomfort is evident and has manifested itself in a rather strong way. The image of the players who don’t go there was not a nice one to see regardless of the fact that they were, so to speak, justified because they had just come in and didn’t need to drink. However, Tammy Abraham, who had come in with them, and Musah were with the other teammates talking, encouraging them, asking for information.
Not them. The discomfort is something more than a simple exclusion. Now, maybe, it is not nice to talk without knowing things or to make allusions of any kind. However – Massimo Ambrosini concluded – what we saw today is something that is not nice to see and to justify for a team of the value of Milan”.
