Jaw-dropping European win
Alli sees light side as he ‘announces return’ with 10-minute red card
Como's Dele Alli leaves the pitch after receiving a red card during the Serie A soccer match between AC Milan and Como at the San Siro stadium, in Milan, Italy, Saturday, March 15, 2025
Johnny Sexton appointed as an assistant coach
DELE ALLI appears to have made light of the red card that ruined his Como debut as he made a long-awaited return from injury.
The former England midfielder, who joined Como on a free transfer in January, came on as a substitute with 81 minutes played in Saturday night’s 2-1 defeat to AC Milan.
But, just 10 minutes after coming on to make his first appearance for any club in two years, Dele was guilty of a rash challenge on former England team-mate Ruben Loftus-Cheek, with an initial yellow card being upgraded to red after a VAR check.
