AC Milan's performance in their 3-0 Europa League defeat to Bournemouth on October 22 was not satisfactory, according to the team's boss Ruben Amorim.
The match took a turn for the worse for the Italians when Bournemouth took the lead just eight minutes in through a penalty goal by Justin Kluivert.
Things escalated quickly, and goalkeeper Mike Maignan was given a straight red card, resulting in a second penalty for Bournemouth, which Marcus Tavernier scored.
The final goal of the match was scored by Amine Adli in the 84th minute, giving Bournemouth fans a memorable night to cherish.
After the game, Amorim expressed his disappointment with the team's performance, stating that the match was over after just 20 minutes.
He acknowledged that the team defended well with 10 men and attempted to push the game forward, but ultimately, a free-kick proved decisive in sealing the win for Bournemouth.
Amorim emphasized the need for the team to learn from this experience and not put themselves in a similar position again.
He also emphasized the importance of focusing on the league and regaining their momentum in the Europa League, starting with their next match against Ferencvaros.
