"Rafa Leao saves Milan", headlines Il Giornale this morning, reporting on the match between Lazio and Milan that ended in a 2-2 draw after 90 minutes in which both teams displayed their limitations. After an encouraging first half, the Rossoneri faltered at the start of the second half, forcing Fonseca to backtrack and bring in the big absentees, Theo Hernandez and Rafael Leao, in one fell swoop. Tammy Abraham and Yunus Musah also came on with them.
The rewards were immediate: Abraham set up Leao, who fired a shot through Provedel's legs to equalize. However, beyond the goal by the number 10, all the controversy centered on what happened right after: the Portuguese player and Theo did not participate in the team's cooling break, staying on the other side of the field.
According to Il Giornale, this is a far more serious situation for Fonseca and Milan to handle than any other issue if it turns out to be a deliberate act: "Rafa and Theo against the coach: a more severe fracture than the standings."
