The primary flashpoint occurred when Fabregas, incensed that Alexis Saelemaekers had escaped a second yellow card, appeared to take matters into his own hands. As the Belgian winger attempted to launch a transition, the Spanish coach physically obstructed him, reportedly grabbing the player’s shirt to impede his progress. This breach of protocol triggered a furious reaction from the Milan bench, leading to a massive melee and a red card for Allegri.
