The Colombian sits out a one-match ban after his second yellow card against Napoli, even though video evidence shows there was no simulation.

“In my view it’s right that Cuadrado doesn’t play this game, otherwise we’d have to change the rules,” Tassotti told Sky Sport Italia.

“It is a pleasure to see him again. He gave a great deal for Milan and played for us even when he was not 100 per cent fit.
