Reo-Coker: Fabregas pull on Saelemaekers inexcusable

Former West Ham and Aston Villa midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker has condemned Como coach Cesc Fabregas for his controversial pull on Alexis Saelemaekers during a Serie A match, calling it 'inexcusable'.

During a CBS Sports Golazo discussion, Reo-Coker described Fabregas' physical intervention on Saelemaekers as 'completely wrong.' The incident occurred in the 1-1 draw between Milan and Como, where Fabregas held Saelemaekers' shirt, allowing Como to break up the pitch.

The Belgian winger reacted furiously to the incident, and Fabregas has since apologized. Reo-Coker, now a pundit, emphasized that such actions are unacceptable in professional football.
