Pervis Estupiñan’s nightmare performance has Milan fans furious on social media: “An insult to soccer”

A nightmare first half for Pervis Estupiñan in Lazio vs. Milan. The Milan winger lost track of Cancellieri on the play that led to the opening goal and also bears responsibility for Lazio’s second goal. His substitution was almost inevitable at that point, with Amorim replacing him with Moreira at the start of the second half—and it was no coincidence that Moreira scored both goals that allowed the Rossoneri to tie the game between the 65th and 67th minutes.

On social media, Milan fans went wild against Estupiñan, whom some even called “an insult to soccer.” And more: “He can’t play at this level,” “He’s so consistent—he keeps making the same mistakes over and over,” “He could have easily caught a flight to Birmingham in July, but here he is on the field, and it’s pitiful,” “He looks like a player from a lower division.”

Amorim also found himself in the crosshairs of Rossoneri haters for deciding to stick with a player who was all but destined for Aston Villa. However, Moreira’s standout performance early in the second half may have put an end to Estupiñan’s Italian adventure, as he could very well be on his way out in January.
