After his heroics against Sassuolo for AS Roma, Leeds United loanee Rasmus Kristensen appeared to have turned a corner after a rough start to the season.
The Denmark international had become a starter on the right side of the defence under José Mourinho, and there was hope that things had changed for him.
However, all of this came crumbling down on Sunday night, when AC Milan defeated Roma 3-1, with Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport both branding the Leeds player as ‘The Worst’ for his team.
The former begins by awarding him a 4.5/10, recalling that the future King of Denmark was called in on Sunday night, and ‘no, it’s not him’, referring to Kristensen.
Beaten by Yacine Adli for Milan’s first, he was outrun for the second and failed to stop Giroud for their third, implying that the Leeds loanee had a negative hand in all of his team’s lost goals.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Yacine Adli ‘jumped him as if he were a dummy’, ‘left Giroud alone’ for the second goal, and ‘had a hand’ in the third.
Overall, it was a ‘hat trick of blunders’ for the Leeds player, who, while improving his form recently, did not help his chances of a permanent move away from Elland Road to Rome at the conclusion of the season.
