The Curse of Ignazio Abate

Ignazio Abate scored his first ever San Siro goal for Milan against Verona, but also confirmed a rather bizarre precedent.

The 31-year-old right-back found the back of the net in Saturday’s 4-1 victory.

It was his first Serie A goal since Milan’s 4-2 win away to Frosinone in December 2015.

Curiously, out of five total top flight career goals, all except this weekend’s were scored in away fixtures.

Even more remarkable is the curse of Abate in the Rossoneri jersey: he netted three times for the club, each of them against a team that would be relegated that season.

He put his deadly mark on Bologna in 2013-14, Frosinone in 2015-16 and Hellas Verona this term.

I wouldn't say it's a curse, but rather an indicator. If even Abate can score against you, then top flight football is not for you.

Once again failed in a game, was the first reason for a goal to Atalanta.

He was okay today, solid defensively and pushed forward to help Samu in attack. Great option as third choice RB.

Thenebra · 20-09-2018, 23:30

Please retire or go away...

Tough to overstate how important that clearance was. Turning point of the game imo.

Lately I've been feeling so dissociated from Milan that I'm happy to see an oldtimer like Abate still being here and valuable
