Milan badboy Balotelli had to be stopped from leaving Coppa final after substitution snub
We'll set the scene: Milan had just conceded the opener in yesterday's Coppa Italia final, 10 minutes from the end of extra time.
Coach Brocchi got up to make a change. Expecting to be called up to cancel out Alvaro Morata's strike, Mario Balotelli got up... only to realize that the finger had been pointed at Jose Mauri.
Super Mario was so angry that he tried to leave the bench, heading straight for the locker room. Though Milan would later claim that he was "answering a call of nature", the Gazzetta claims that it took a Milan PR employee and a Coach to get him to sit back down on the bench.
His number would be called a few minutes later, but it would prove to be too little, too late.
With the Repubblica claiming once again that the Liverpool loanee's days in Milan are numbered, it would be an ignominious ending to his second Rossoneri experience.
