Zlatan, Lukaku nearly come to blows in fiery Milan derby

ZLATAN Ibrahimovic clashed with former Manchester United team-mate Romelu Lukaku during a heated Milan derby in the Italian Cup quarter-finals on Tuesday night.

AC Milan’s Ibrahimovic and Inter’s Lukaku were both booked following a spat at the end of the first half, which continued into the tunnel during the interval.

The pair could be seen – and heard on television due to the San Siro being empty – exchanging insults as Lukaku had to be restrained by his team-mates as he attempted to confront the Swedish forward.

Ibrahimovic, who had given Milan a first-half lead, was sent off after picking up a second yellow card after the break, while Lukaku levelled with a penalty before Christian Eriksen struck a stoppage-time winner for Inter to send them through with a 2-1 win.

Ibrahimovic and Lukaku spent the 2017-18 season as team-mates at Old Trafford, with the Belgian having previously said he was able to learn from his fellow striker during that period.

However, there appeared to be a lack of goodwill between the pair as what started as an exchange of words led to the pair going head to head.

According to reports, the exchange was loud enough to be heard on television and it went like this:

Zlatan: “You are a donkey.”

Lukaku: “Let’s go inside you b*tch, we’re gonna see.”

Zlatan: “Call your mother, do your voodoo sh*t.”

Lukaku: “Fck you and your wife you little btch.”

Lukaku as he walked into the tunnel also added: “You want to speak about my mother you son of a b*tch? I’ll shoot you in your head.”

The Coppa Italia clash came with the sides also fighting at the top of the Serie A table, with AC Milan two points clear of second-placed Inter at the halfway stage of the season.
