AC Milan midfielder Sandro Tonali slammed the refereeing after their Champions League defeat to Chelsea.

Tonali mocked referee Daniel Siebert's cards for 'ridiculous, embarrassing' decisions on the night at San Siro stadium.

“There are so many incidents like that during a game. When you give a penalty and a red card after 18 minutes, for a touch like that…" Tonali told Sky Italia.

“We may as well make it basketball where any touch is a foul. It felt like that anyway, we had several yellow cards for ridiculous, embarrassing free kicks in the first half alone.

“Anyway, we have to look at the rest of the game. We tried to play with pride and passion, even if it was very difficult in the circumstances.

“It's disappointing for all the fans who came here tonight, packed the stadium and expected a different match. We thank them for coming."
