Chelsea target Carlos Bacca escapes manager's wrath after cheeky rabona goal
Carlos Bacca celebrates scoring his outrageous rabona last night
 
Bacca, 29, is a January transfer target of Chelsea's and has been reprimanded before for attempting outrageous shots on goal.
The Colombia international rounded Carpi's goalkeeper and wrapped one foot behind the other to flick the ball into the net.
He also earned an assist as Milan won 2-1 to advance to the Coppa Italia semi-finals.
 
Mihajlovic was furious earlier in the season when he tried the same trick and missed the target.
But the under-fire manager was all praise for his striker after yesterday's performance.
"Bacca scored with a rabona tonight and he got it spot on," Mihajlovic said.
"It's a risky move but one that he has in his blood.
"When he pulls it off and scores, that's great."
 
Bacca is reportedly on Chelsea's radar as the Premier League champions seek to sign a striker this January.
Both Radamel Falcao and Loic Remy are expected to be offloaded before February's deadline.
News News Blog Sport understands Chelsea are also chasing West Brom striker Saido Berhaino, with fellow suitors Tottenham also vying for his signature.
 
As for Bacca, the striker explained after the game he is determined to land a trophy in his first season at the San Siro.
“It was a fine performance, Milan played great football against an impressive Carpi, above all in the first half, and we are very happy to be in the semi-final,” Bacca told Rai Sport.
“One of our objectives is to win the Coppa Italia and we will try to bring home this trophy. It is an important victory for the team.”
Bacca may have scored last night but it's not the first time he's tried the rabona in front of goal…
