AC Milan defeated Carpi 2-1 last night in the Coppa Italia Quarter Final with goals from M’Baye Niang and Carlos Bacca.
The latter has been heavily linked this week with a transfer to Chelsea, despite only joining Milan in 2015.

Bacca’s goal was pretty special too. After rounding the goalkeeper and with an empty net, rather than rolling it into the open goal he decided to try a rabona finish.
Luckily for the Colombian it came off. Here’s how it went down on Twitter:

Post-match Bacca didn’t comment on any rumours linking him away from Milan, he rather wisely focusaed on AC Milan’s hopes for winning the Coppa Italia with his current club.

Milan will face either Alessandria or Spezia in the semi-final with every chance to progress.
