Source context
AC Milan head coach Ruben Amorim believes that ‘fatigue’ set in, which was one of the factors behind the collapse against Bologna. Milan started the game badly on the night with Samuel Mbangula putting Bologna 1-0 up, but Alphadjo Cisse scored twice in relatively quick succession to put the Rossoneri in front going into the break, so it looked like the game was in hand. What followed in the second half was a total catastrophe. An own-goal drew Raffaele Palladino’s side level, then two minutes later they led again with Mbangula scoring, and the Belgian got his hat-trick late on to secure a quite remarkable 4-2 win.
