AC Milan's debacle in European return highlights issues under new coach Ruben Amorim

AC Milan used to rule in Europe. After missing out completely on last season’s continental competitions, Milan is in crisis again after kicking off its Europa League campaign by losing 2-0 at home to Benfica. “We’re creating more problems for ourselves when we have the ball than when the opponent has it,” said new Milan coach Ruben Amorim — who lasted just 14 months at Manchester United in his previous job.
