Both Theo Hernandez & Olivier Giroud Risked Red Cards Against Inter, Italian Media Suggest

Both Theo Hernandez and Olivier Giroud risked getting red cards for AC Milan against Inter in the Derby della Madoninna on Saturday evening, according to a report in the Italian print media today.

As has been reported by Corriere dello Sport today, there were two flash points where the referee, Daniele Chiffi, could have taken a different route that may have seen the game end very differently for Inter.

In one moment, Olivier Giroud had already been shown a yellow card for an altercation with Milan Skriniar before he then directed clear anger towards the referee with an arm gesture that could feasibly have resulted in a second yellow card on another day.

There was also Theo Hernandez who was on a yellow card for much of the game and then the ref chose not to give a foul which if he had blown for, would have meant a second yellow for him.
