In a Milan-Udinese match filled with emotions and controversial refereeing decisions, Udinese fans in the away section engaged in intimidating behavior towards AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan. The French keeper was the target of several chants throughout the second half, including offensive phrases, as he defended the goal directly in front of the Udinese supporters.
Calciomercato report how this incident follows a previous racism controversy from last season’s match in Udine, where racist chants were directed at Maignan. That game was suspended for five minutes, and the French player temporarily left the field. Maignan’s complaint led to the closure of Udinese’s curva for two matches.
Adding to the tension, Udinese fans displayed a threatening banner in the San Siro away section, which read: “Today just a greeting, in Udine the right tribute.” This ominous message raises concerns about potential future incidents, particularly for the return fixture in April.
