Chaos in Fabregas’ first game as a boss with two red cards, brawl & late winner

THE SUN SPORT

ARSENAL legend Cesc Fabregas had the most dramatic start possible to life as a first-team manager.

The Como co-owner saw his Serie B club snatch a stoppage-time winner at home to  Feralpisalo – after a huge brawl and two red cards.

Former Chelsea midfielder Fabregas, 36, had been named interim boss just before the international break.

The 110-cap Spaniard played for Como last season and managed their Under-19s.

And he was an animated figure on his senior bow in the dugout as he oversaw a hectic start – peaked by Lucas Da Cunha’s third-minute opener for the home team.

But despite Como’s apparent control, Mattia Compagnon snatched a leveller for the bottom side early in the second period.
