AC Milan had to win against Red Star Belgrade, and they did, but it's the only positive takeaway from last night, as the Rossoneri's performance was quite disappointing.
This led to yet another outburst from Paulo Fonseca after the match. Following his harsh criticism of referee La Penna in Bergamo a few days ago, this time, he directed his frustration at his players.

As reported this morning by Corriere della Sera, this victory brings the Rossoneri to 12 points in the standings, just one behind Inter and one ahead of Atalanta and Juventus.
By also winning the final two games on the schedule against Girona and Dinamo Zagreb, Milan would have a strong chance of finishing among the top eight, thus securing direct qualification to the Round of 16 without going through the playoffs.
Last night’s match was decided by an 87th-minute goal from Abraham, following Rafael Leao's opener in the first half and the equalizer by former Torino player Radonjić in the second half.
The only positive aspect is the three points, but what a struggle against the modest Red Star.
How did Paulo Fonseca react after Milan's win vs Red Star Belgrade?
After the final whistle, the Portuguese head coach was quite harsh on his players: "I'm happy with the result, not with the performance. We're always on a rollercoaster. I need to talk to the players. I work every day for the good of the team, but I don't know if everyone in the group can say the same. I will never stop. My conscience is clear. If necessary, I'll field the Primavera or Milan Futuro players. No problem."
