Milan vs. Spezia is unlikely to be replayed despite a request from the Italian association for the protection of consumer rights CODACONS.
The Rossoneri suffered a 2-1 loss against Spezia last night following a clear mistake from referee Marco Serra.
The 39-year-old didn’t play the advantage, giving a free kick to Milan while Junior Messias was about to find the net with a fine curler.
The goal was cancelled out and, on top of that, Spezia scored a late winner through Emmanuel Gyasi.
CODACONS President Marco Donzelli asked the FIGC to replay the match because the referee committed an ‘incredible technical mistake’ as proved by his reaction.
Serra immediately apologised to Milan players but could not give the goal to the Rossoneri after blowing his whistle.
The 39-year-old will be suspended for at least two matches and resume his season in Serie B.
However, the match won’t be replayed because Serra didn’t make a mistake in applying the football law, so the game can’t be cancelled.
The referee was reduced to tears at the end of the match, but a few Milan stars, including Zlatan Ibrahimovic, went to his dressing room to console him.
