AC Milan played a game of a high intensity against AS Roma. The club from capital also did some damage to the Rossoneri but it was not enough.
La Gazzetta dello Sport discusses the game and in particular the referee Marco Guida as they analyse his calls.
Ibrahimovic is clearly off-side on Rebic's assist, all too generous, who had put him in a position to score with an empty net.
It is also a correct call to cancel Mkhitaryan's goal for Roma. Mancin fouled Theo Hernandez.
At 31 minutes, first major protests for Roma: Veretout starts on a solitary counterattack, launched towards the door. At 25 meters, he falls because of Tomori's recovery. Guida lets it go, the replay does not see obvious faults but the Frenchman was still unbalanced in the race.
At 39' Guida considers regular intervention on the edge of Fazio's Romanist area on Calabria. It is Irrati who calls his colleague back to the monitor and shows him the Roma player's stomp: the penalty is correct amid protests of the centre-back.
The referee decisions in the second half are more questionable. At 80' Mkhitaryan catches the ball from Theo and goes down in the middle of the area: Guida whistles a foul from the Armenian, who however had regularly entered the area only to be hindered.
There could have been a penalty for Milan, Karsdorp touches Leao's leg on the run , but the referee doesn't feel like whistling a second penalty for the Rossoneri.
