Chukuweze’s first half goal enough to give 10-man AC Milan a win over Okoye’s Udinese

Maduka Okoye and Samuel Chukuweze returned to Italy to face each other after facing a terrible ordeal in Libya.

Paulo Fonseca’s side were able to dig deep to seal a 1-0 victory thanks to Chukuweze’s goal in the first half.

Super Eagles star Samuel Chukuweze made AC Milan’s starting eleven alongside Okafor, Pulisic and Morata in attack.

Udinese and Super Eagles shot-stopper Maduka Okoye continued in goal after impressing against Lecce before the international break.

The game started and just 13 minutes into it, AC Milan opened the scoring. Samuel Chukwueze was put through by Christian Pulisic and he showed brilliant composure inside the box to fire into the bottom left corner. 

As the game went on, AC Milan had a player sent off by the referee for a last-man foul before the end of the first half.

The second half started with AC Milan changing their approach to the game after being reduced to 10 men.

Udinese pushed for the equaliser but were unable to penetrate the Milan defence till the final whistle was blown.
