Rossoneri came unstuck against JuventusReduced to 10 men in that contestSlipped from the top of Serie A tableWHAT HAPPENED?

The United States international was handed another Serie A start by the Rossoneri in that contest, as he lined up against fellow countrymen Weston McKennie and Tim Weah. It was to be the visitors to San Siro that had the last laugh, with a solitary goal from Manuel Locatelli settling the tie in Juve’s favour.

Milan endured a disappointing evening on home soil, with USMNT star Christian Pulisic having to be taken off shortly before half-time following a costly red card picked up by Malick Thiaw. Stefano Pioli’s side were unable to hold out with 10 men, leading to them slipping from the top of the Serie A table.

DID YOU KNOW?

Musah was, however, to put in another impressive performance – with his work rate in the middle of the park being noted once again – and he has posted on social media of the need for everybody in the Milan camp to stick together: “Head held high and always united.”

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

Musah has now taken in nine appearances for the Rossoneri on the back of his summer transfer from Valencia, with the 20-year-old midfielder earning plenty of plaudits in Italy for the speed at which he has settled in new surroundings.
