Mike Maignan: Why AC Milan goalkeeper was sent off against Bournemouth

  • AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan was sent off during a Europa League tie against Bournemouth after an altercation with Tyler Adams.
  • The 27th-minute incident occurred with Milan trailing 1-0 to Justin Kluivert’s early penalty.
  • As Bournemouth prepared for a corner, Maignan shoved Adams in the face after being approached by the American midfielder.
  • The French goalkeeper was given a straight red card, confirmed by VAR, while Adams was booked for his role in the confrontation.
  • Bournemouth were awarded a penalty for the shove, which Marcus Tavernier converted to make it 2-0, compounding matters for Ruben Amorim’s side.
