In AC Milan's UEFA Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday night at the San Siro, Samuel Chukwueze scored his inaugural goal for the team. Despite his brilliant finish in the 37th minute, which leveled the score, AC Milan suffered a 3-1 defeat.
Borussia Dortmund took the lead with a penalty from Marco Reus, awarded after Jamie Bynoe-Gittens was fouled by David Calabria. Chukwueze's goal, though deflected, showcased his skill as he maneuvered past defenders.
Bynoe-Gittens later restored Dortmund's lead in the 59th minute, and Karim Adeyemi secured the Bundesliga side's victory with a powerful shot that eluded AC Milan's goalkeeper, Mike Maignan.
During the game, Chukwueze exhibited notable statistics, with 51 touches, an 86% pass completion rate, 2 key passes, 4 successful dribbles out of 8 attempts, and winning six ground duels.
Having played in twelve matches across various competitions for Stefano Pioli's side, Chukwueze has contributed to two goal-scoring moments. AC Milan, currently at the bottom of Group F with 5 points, faces a crucial upcoming match against Newcastle to enhance their chances of advancing to the round of 16.
