US national team star Yunus Musah has reacted to Milan’s “crazy” victory over the weekend.
The 20-year-old midfielder opened up about his “incredible” match with the Rossoneri last weekend, in which compatriot Christian Pulisic scored the winning goal in stoppage time. was just the start of the chaos, as Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan was sent off and striker Olivier Giroud had to take to the net to finish the match, with his team using all of their substitutes. Genoa goalkeeper Josep Martinez was also sent off before the final whistle.
“Saturday’s match was without a doubt the craziest I’ve ever been a part of”Musah said. “I’ve never experienced anything like this and it’s incredible to come away with a victory. When we got the red card and Giroud had to go into goal and the free kick was given so close to the box, I was part of the wall. I just hoped, because after all that hard work, a draw would have felt like a defeat. Winning with Oli (Giroud) in goal, who made a few saves and who is a great goalkeeper, is even better! After the match we were all very happy to play football. We had good times like that and it was incredible. »
Musah has adapted well to his role at Milan after finding himself on the substitutes’ bench. Coach Stefano Pioli started him in three consecutive matches, including a very important one in the Champions League against Borussia Dortmund last week.
