[Saba Sports News] Recently, the Serie A sports judge issued a ruling regarding the incidents in the third round of the league: AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri has been suspended for one match and fined €10,000. The decision stems from the red card he received late in the match against Bologna, which has sparked intense debate among professionals and fans. According to the official announcement, Allegri was penalized for “criticizing the VAR operation in a disrespectful manner in the 45th minute of the second half and openly questioning the fourth official after being notified of the dismissal; the violation was recorded by the fourth official.” This suspension will directly impact AC Milan’s next match, as the team will be without its coach on the sidelines. Additionally, AC Milan has also been fined. The club was penalized €5,000 for “delaying the kickoff by approximately four minutes without valid reason, constituting objective responsibility.” This additional penalty underscores the need for the team to strengthen discipline and attention to detail, both on and off the field, to avoid costly mistakes. The incident has also sparked heated discussions on social media, with fans divided: some support Allegri’s reaction, while others believe his behavior was excessive. Due to this suspension, Allegri will have to watch the next match against Udinese from the stands.
