SNAPPED: Lazio defender Acerbi moves to end Bakayoko controversy with classy message

Lazio defender Francesco Acerbi says he's accepted Tiemoue Bakayoko's apology and insists it's time to move on after his shirt controversy.

After Milan's victory over Lazio on Saturday, Acerbi swapped shirts with on-loan Chelsea midfielder Bakayoko before the Rossonero player waved it to the crowd like a trophy.

After Bakayoko apologised, Acerbi posted to social media: “Enough controversy, we'll see each other on the pitch."
