Amorim after Bournemouth defeat: I am not speaking to the players right now

AC Milan head coach Ruben Amorim gave his assessment following his team's 0-3 defeat to Bournemouth in the Europa League group stage.

According to the manager, the game was effectively over by the 27th minute. Amorim stressed that the team must address its fundamental lack of discipline to keep all 11 players on the pitch.

It is difficult to talk about the team's performance – after the 27th minute, it essentially did not exist. We need to work on our mistakes and ensure that 11 players always remain on the pitch. It was a difficult night: we were down to ten men, and Ruben Loftus-Cheek felt discomfort at halftime. Ruben Amorim

The manager added that he chose not to speak with the players immediately after the final whistle because emotions were still too high. The squad has little time to reflect, as they face Udinese in just three days.
