Against Milan, Chukwueze became too hot for City defenders as the Super Eagles winger tormented the Citizens throughout the game.

Although Erling Haaland opened the scoring for the English side, Colombo scored twice in four minutes off a pair of Chukwueze crosses.

The AFCON 2023 star produced dazzling skills to cut out two defenders, leaving them clueless on two occasions as his crosses met with Colombo, who slotted home, ESPN reports.

James McAtee restored parity for City in the 55th minute after he met with Micah Hamilton's cross.

Many had thought the encounter would be decided via a penalty shootout, but Marco Nasti, who replaced Colombo, secured the win with 12 minutes of the 90 remaining.

US Men's national team star Christian Pulisic made his first appearance since his country's exit from the Copa America, and the Milan star received warm applause from the fans.
