'Well deserved' - Zlatan Ibrahimovic accepts humiliating award after AC Milan knocked out of Champions League by Feyenoord

Milan lost 2-1 on aggregate to Feyenoord on Tuesday to exit the competition in disappointing fashion. Following the defeat, actor Valerio Staffelli gave the senior Milan advisor The Tapiro d'Oro (Golden Tapir) - a prize delivered to celebrities who have been humiliated or defeated. This was the ninth time Ibrahimovic has received this award, with the ex-striker saying on this occasion it was "well deserved".

He said on Striscia la Notizia: “We are disappointed and angry, the Tapiro is well deserved. It was not a positive moment. [Wednesday] there was a lack of maturity, but now the objective is to remain united as a group for the championship and the Coppa Italia.”

Milan are having a disappointing season as they sit seventh in Serie A and they are out of the Champions League before the last 16 stage. All they really have to play for is the Coppa Italia and qualifying for next season's Champions League.

Ibrahimovic's old side will hope to bounce back from this setback when they take on Torino in the league this weekend.
