Fabregas Blasts Morata Red Card: "Expect More!"
16 Feb
Summary
- Morata received two yellow cards in quick succession.
- Fabregas called for more from the experienced forward.
- Como's 10-game unbeaten streak ended with the loss.

Cesc Fabregas has publicly criticized striker Álvaro Morata after the latter was sent off during Como's recent 2-1 home loss against Fiorentina. Morata, who entered the match as a substitute, received two yellow cards in rapid succession within the final minutes of the game, resulting in his dismissal.
Fabregas, speaking after the match, expressed disappointment, stating that while provocation is part of football, an experienced player like Morata should demonstrate greater control. This costly red card for Morata, who recently recovered from a thigh injury sustained in December, means he will miss Como's upcoming league fixture against his parent club, AC Milan. The defeat also ended Como's impressive 10-game unbeaten streak across all competitions, causing them to fall to seventh place in the Serie A standings. Morata has yet to score in 15 league appearances since joining Como on loan from AC Milan in the summer.
