Ibrahimovic: AC Milan put themselves out of the game

After AC Milan was eliminated from the Champions League by Feyenoord, the club's senior advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic angrily accused the team of "self-destruction" and criticized the players for their poor performance. He also expressed dissatisfaction with the referee's decision to send Theo Hernandez off, but his biggest anger was directed at the poor performance of Milan's players.

Just one minute into Tuesday's game, Santiago Jimenez scored for Feyenoord, tying the aggregate score to 1-1, dealing a heavy blow to Milan. In the 51st minute, Theo was sent off with a direct red card for diving, putting Milan in a passive position. In the 73rd minute, Julian Carranza scored another goal, completely ending Milan's Champions League journey, and Milan was eventually eliminated with an aggregate score of 1-2.

Ibrahimovic was blunt in an interview after the game: "Feyenoord is not better than us, we eliminated ourselves, we are so disappointing. The referee was too harsh on Theo, he showed him a red card without even a warning. Theo is not an actor, he just tried his best to play football."

Milan's focus will now return to Serie A, where they are currently seventh and still have hope of qualifying for next season's European competition. In addition, Sergio Conceicao's team has won the Italian Super Cup and advanced to the semi-finals of the Italian Cup, so there is still room for gains this season.
