Amorim reportedly angry with eight Milan players after Ferencvaros defeat

Milan lost 2-0 at home to Ferencvaros in the Europa League. The defeat is their third Europa League loss in four matches, and it has put their hopes of reaching the knockout rounds at risk. Currently fifth in Serie A, Milan now face the danger of elimination.

At the post-match press conference, Ruben Amorim said the first-half performance was especially unacceptable and that such a display could not continue in front of their own fans and at their own stadium. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the coach also showed his anger to several players in the dressing room after the match.

The newspaper reports that Alphadjo Cisse is among the players who angered the coach with his attitude and performance. Despite being rested for the Derby della Madonnina, he was substituted at half-time in the Ferencvaros match. Davide Bartesaghi, Filippo Terracciano, Ardon Jashari and Yunus Musah are also said to have not shown the right attitude. Mario Gila, Luka Modric and Christian Pulisic, who came on in the second half, have also reportedly been criticised. It is also reported that Amorim was troubled by the further decline in performance in the second half.

Milan travel to Genoa on Sunday at 14:00 GMT for their final Serie A match before the international break. They need a win in that game to move past their disappointment in Europe.
