Higuain apologizes for "role model for children"


AC Milan striker Gonzalo Higuain has apologized to Juventus after being sent off to AC Milan this season during a 2-0 loss on Sunday in a game at Calchio.
Higuain, after receiving a warning as a result of a match with Moroccan defender Mehdi Benatia, gave the Real Madrid striker and former Napoli a yellow card for protest and dismissal in the 83rd minute.

"In the beginning, I would like to apologize to my team, the coach, the fans and the referee after my reaction," Higuain said.

"I take responsibility for what happened, and I hope it will not be repeated again." This happened when we were late in the game and after a penalty kick we are human and we are not like the robot, but I do not want to justify my actions. "

Juventus had loaned Juventus to AC Milan for a year with an option to buy in August after Cristiano Ronaldo joined Real Madrid and the Argentinian player stressed that the decision to leave was not his property.

"The decision was made by others and I did not take it," said Higuain, who scored 55 goals in 105 matches with Juventus, including 40 goals in 73 league games.

"I'm in Milan now and happy, I'm a passionate person and sometimes it's hard to control myself and once I look at my face I can tell if I'm happy or sad.

"I have a wonderful relationship with them and it was good to try to calm me down and know what players feel and I can only apologize," he said.
