AC Milan lost 3-0 to Bournemouth in the Europa League, with goalkeeper Mike Maignan sent off in the first half.

AC Milan lost 3-0 to Bournemouth in the Europa League on Thursday night, with manager Ruben Amorim enduring a difficult return to English football. Goalkeeper Mike Maignan was sent off early in the first half after pushing Tyler Adams in the face, prompting Amorim's visible anger on the touchline. The dismissal proved costly as Bournemouth scored twice from the penalty spot: Justin Kluivert opened the scoring before Marcus Tavernier converted a second penalty following Maignan's red card.

Amorim created further confusion by attempting to replace Maignan without substituting an outfield player, though substitute goalkeeper Lorenzo Torriani eventually came on. Amine Adli sealed the victory with a free-kick goal in the second half to complete Milan's poor evening.

This marked Amorim's second difficult outing against Bournemouth since leaving Manchester United. Bournemouth fans chanted during the match that 'it had happened again', referring to United's 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford in December 2024 and a 4-4 draw a year later. Milan currently sit fourth in Serie A but 24th in the Europa League standings.
