“I did not insult anyone”; Higuain sends apology after getting the red card

Milan striker, Gonzalo Higuain apologized for his red card against Juventus, but insisted he had not offended anyone. Higuain miserably ended his first match against his former club with a mismanaged penalty before going out with a red card in Milan’s 2-0 defeat at San Siro on Sunday.

While apologizing, the Argentine 30-year-old said emotions simply dominated after a tough game. “It seemed like an unfair card, I was troubled, as much as I was concerned. I was warned, but I did not insult anyone, “Higuain told” Milan TV. ” – I apologize to my club, fans, coach and my friends, because these episodes should be avoided. We are human, we feel emotions. The game was not on the right track and it was one of those heavy loads. ”

Cristiano Ronaldo, former Higuain teammate in Real Madrid, spoke in defense of the Rossoneri striker, saying he hoped the Argentine would not be given a long punishment for the incident. Higuain had the opportunity to equalize the score from the white spot to Milan, after Mario Marzukic’s opening goal but failed.

The Argentine took charge of this case and pledged not to make the same mistake again. “It was a special episode. If I had scored, the game would have changed, – added Higuain. – The important thing is to take responsibility, to know what went wrong. I promise it will not happen again. Now we have to look forward, we will have two weeks of rest and then face Lazio for fourth place. “
