Ex-West Ham and Aston Villa midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker, now a CBS Sports pundit, has strongly criticized Como coach Cesc Fabregas for his physical intervention on AC Milan's Alexis Saelemaekers during their 1-1 draw on Wednesday.
Fabregas was seen grabbing Saelemaekers' shirt while the Belgian was defending, allowing Como to break up the pitch. Saelemaekers reacted furiously to the incident, and while Fabregas has since apologized, Reo-Coker maintained his stance during a pre-match discussion for Milan's upcoming game against Parma, stating: "To do that, it's inexcusable... It's completely wrong."
