Super Eagles winger Samuel Chukwueze continued his phenomenal preseason form with AC Milan, scoring the winning goal in their thrilling 1-0 victory over Real Madrid at Chicago’s Soldier Field on Thursday.
Chukwueze netted the decisive goal in the 55th minute, leaving Real Madrid’s goalkeeper Andriy Lunin with no chance. This stunning strike secured another high-profile preseason win for Milan, following their impressive 3-2 triumph over Manchester City last Saturday.
Chukwueze has a knack for tormenting Real Madrid! This goal marked his fourth against the UEFA Champions League winners, a testament to his consistent threat on the pitch.
His impressive record against Madrid stretches back to his Villarreal days, and he’s continued to haunt them despite his move away from Spain.
Chukwueze’s scintillating performance earned him the well-deserved Man of the Match award, with his pace and skill on the flanks causing Madrid’s defense all sorts of problems. He was substituted for Hugo Cuenca in the 78th minute.
With two appearances under his belt, Chukwueze has already significantly impacted Milan’s preseason campaign, scoring one goal and providing two assists. He’ll be looking to continue his red-hot form when Milan faces Barcelona in another friendly on Wednesday, August 7.
