Abraham’s Double Strike Stuns Former Club as Milan Takes 2-0 Lead in Cup Quarterfinal

Abraham’s Double Strike Stuns Former Club as Milan Takes 2-0 Lead in Cup Quarterfinal

In a surprising turn of events, Tammy Abraham netted twice in the first half against his parent club Roma, propelling AC Milan to a 2-0 advantage in the Coppa Italia quarterfinal match.

The English striker, who joined Milan on loan from Roma in a deadline day swap deal last summer, made a significant impact in the crucial cup tie. Abraham’s first goal came from an impressive header, as he connected with a cross from Theo Hernandez. He then doubled Milan’s lead just before halftime, once again benefiting from Hernandez’s setup to beat the offside trap.

This performance comes in stark contrast to that of Alexis Saelemaekers, who moved to Roma as part of the same loan exchange. Both players were included in their respective teams’ starting lineups for this important fixture.

As the match progresses, all eyes will be on Abraham to see if he can complete a hat-trick against his parent club, while Roma will need to mount a significant comeback in the second half to keep their Coppa Italia hopes alive.
