Allegri and Fabregas in huge Serie A bust-up: "You're such an idiot" 🤬 | OneFootball

Good vibes in Serie A.

On Wednesday night, everyone had their eyes glued to the Champions League. Yet, Serie A treated us to a great match between AC Milan and Como (1-1) at the same time.

While the game was marked by mistakes from the French goalkeepers, Mike Maignan and Jean Butez, it also became the scene of an unlikely clash between Max Allegri and Cesc Fabregas.

The reason? Just over ten minutes before the end of the match, the Spanish coach was guilty of pulling Alexis Saelemaekers' shirt, preventing him from getting back into position.

This gesture made Allegri lose his cool, and he didn’t hesitate to go and confront Como’s coach.

Faced with this tense moment, the referee decided to take action by giving a red card to... Max Allegri. Cesc Fabregas, for his part, got away without so much as a warning.

A scenario of wild injustice in the eyes of the AC Milan coach, who didn’t hesitate to verbally lash out at the former Arsenal player just before the press conference.

"You’re a big idiot. You’re a kid who started coaching yesterday," the former Juventus coach reportedly said, according to various media present at the scene.

For his part, Cesc Fabregas expressed regret for his action in front of the Italian journalists. "I want to apologize. Today I did something I’m not proud of; I made an unsportsmanlike gesture. I was so excited that I touched the ball; my hands should have stayed at home, as Chivu said the other day. Especially as a coach, I recognize that we can’t allow ourselves to do that. I hope I never do it again," he declared.

Between this new incident, the Kalulu controversy, and the bizarre red card given to Gift Orban, Italian football is certainly going through some eventful times.
