Strahinja Pavlovic had to have stitches in his head after a collision with Pietro Comuzzo during Sunday's draw against Fiorentina. It was one of those games where Comuzzo seemed determined to do damage with his head. He scored the opening goal for Fiorentina midway through the second half, nodding in a corner, and then at the other end an aerial duel with Pavlovic ended with them both in a heap on the floor.

Few people will be left smiling after the international break at AC Milan, but Christopher Nkunku is, and he hopes to share it. This break has been one of the worst for Milan in recent memory.

With him not playing in their second game of the break, he was given permission to return to Milano early, something which could please Massimiliano Allegri.

Nottingham Forest's winless pre-season campaign continued after they drew 0-0 with Fiorentina at the City Ground, making it six matches without a win.

David de Gea stated, "I will speak about all of that when my career is over. When things don't happen, it's for a reason... Personally, it went well because Manchester is my home."
