Daniel Maldini was the author of Cagliari's winning goal at Atalanta's ground, in a match that ended 2-1. The Italian striker converted a penalty in the final minutes that gave his team all three points.
In the early hours of the morning, after the match, Maldini reportedly crashed his car, raising concerns about his condition. Cagliari's club came forward publicly to deny that the player had any positive tests for alcohol or drugs.
The episode comes on the heels of Maldini's good sporting performance, as he directly contributed to his team's victory in a difficult away trip to Bergamo.
