One goal scored, one goal gifted away, one red card received. That’s impressive statistics for AC Milan captain Alessio Romagnoli. He was one of the main culprits for the Rossoneri’s second Serie A defeat in a row.Although Milan managed to snatch a late win at Atletico Madrid in the Champions League in midweek, their week can still be branded a failure. Following the eventful 4-3 defeat at Fiorentina in the last matchday, they suffered a crushing 3-1 home defeat against a classy Sassuolo side at San Siro.Berardi making Romagnoli eat dirt ☠️.Such an overrated shit defender. pic.twitter.com/TTp3IyKwcv— Don Totti (@mourinho_fann) November 28, 2021 The visitors from the Emilia-Romagna region hadn’t won a match since famously upsetting Juventus a month ago. Defeats against Empoli and Udinese and a poor point won at home against Cagliari didn’t exactly inspire much optimism ahead of their visit to Milan. And their prospects seem even poorer when Romagnoli headed his team into an early lead.But the greed-blacks seemingly have a special mode for the away games against Italy’s biggest clubs. Azzurri internationals Gianluca Scamacca and Domenico Berardi ran riot and turned the game on its head. Only three minutes after the opening goal, Scamacca belted a wonderful goal in into the top corner, leaving goalkeeper Mike Maignan powerless and Milan defender Simon Kjaer put the ball into his own net less than 10 minutes later.Zlatan Ibrahimovic started the game for Stefano Pioli’s side, but the veteran Swede looked detached and isolated upfront. Berardi showed that he’s one of the best Italian players at the minute when he absolutely humiliated Romagnoli with his trickery before slotting into the net through Maignan’s legs. And Romagnoli completed his miserable evening with an amateurish sending off after committing a poor foul as the last man.There was no way back for the Rossoneri, who missed the chance to return to the top of the table. Napoli will meet Lazio later tonight with a chance of opening a three-point gap at the top.SERIE 1 – ROUND 14FridayCagliari – Salernitana 1-1 (0-0)/Pavoletti 73 – Bonazzoli 90/SaturdaySampdoria – Verona 3-1 (0-1)/Candreva 51, Ekdal 77, Murru 90 – Tameze 37/Empoli – Fiorentina 2-1 (0-0)/Bandinelli 87, Pinamonti 89 – Vlahovic 57/Juventus – Atalanta 0-1 (0-1)/Zapata 28/SundayUdinese – Genoa 0-0AC Milan – Sassuolo 1-3 (1-2)/Romagnoli 21 – Scamacca 24, Kjaer 33 og, Berardi 66/Spezia – Bologna 0-1 (0-0)/Arnautovic 81/20:00: (1.75) Roma (3.70) Torino (5.40)22:45: (1.85) Napoli (3.70) Lazio (4.60)***odds are subject to change
