Milan took to the field against Udinese, bringing home 3 very important points thanks to a clear 4-0 victory.
In the 9th minute of the second half, Maignan was forced to leave the field on a stretcher after suffering a head trauma following a clash with Jimenez. As pointed out by the colleaguest at MilanPress.it, no one realized that Conceicao’s team played the entire second half without a captain. The French goalkeeper had in fact left the field with the armband on his arm and, in the chaos of the moment, Theo Hernandez forgot to get another one.
Does Milan risk a sanction?
The regulations are clear: the captain must wear the captain’s armband as a distinguishing mark. However, in yesterday’s match it is difficult to detect any intentionality in forgetting the armband. Referee Sacchi should also have noted the absence of a captain, but this did not happen, and for this reason, the Rossoneri do not risk any sanction.
