Reports Conceicao angry at Milan players for attending concert ahead of Parma | OneFootball

Sergio Conceicao was visibly angered in a confrontation with right-back Davide Calabria after Milan’s chaotic 3-2 victory over Parma in Serie A on Sunday afternoon, and reports in Italy claim that a concert attended by some of his senior players in the build-up to the game was part of the reason why the Rossoneri tactician was so annoyed at full-time.

For the fourth time in seven games since Conceicao was appointed, Milan had to come from behind to claim victory on Sunday evening, defeating Parma by three goals to two having trailed 2-1 in the 91st minute.

Christian Pulisic, Tijjani Reijnders and Samuel Chukwueze came up with the goals in an entertaining afternoon at the Giuseppe Meazza.

The spectacle didn’t end at full-time though, as Conceicao rushed across the pitch at full-time to confront Calabria in a moment of slight madness on the San Siro turf.

Both the coach and player claimed that the situation was already quashed by the time of their post-match interviews, while reports on Sunday evening claimed an intervention from Zlatan Ibrahimovic helped smooth the situation over.

Reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport claim that Conceicao was left annoyed by some of his players and their decision to attend a Lazza concert at the Unipol Forum on Friday night in the build-up to the Parma game.

La Gazzetta claims that Calabria, Theo Hernandez, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Francesco Camarda were among the players in attendance at the concert. Lazza, coincidentally, happens to be a Milan supporter.
