UCL: Former Chelsea star reacts as Inter defeat AC Milan

Former Chelsea and now AC Milan defender, Fikayo Tomori, in a recent statement said his team suffered from stage fright following their Champions League semi-final first-leg 2-0 defeat to rivals Inter Milan on Wednesday.

Inter were able to win the game at San Siro thanks to two goals from Edin Dzeko and Henrikh Mkhitaryan in the first half.

A highlight from the match showed AC Milan looking hugely jittery in the beginning, and Tomori said at his post-match press conference after the game, “We are disappointed with the way we started the game, conceding two early goals like that.

“The first one from a corner and then the second straight afterwards. To go two goals down in the first 15 minutes is a kick in the teeth.

“It took us a while to get back in the game. There was a bit of anxiety in the team. In a game like this, you can’t do that. It is only the first leg. We can’t let our heads drop.”

AC will hope to turn things to their favour when they meet in the second leg next week.
