Video: Milan midfielder Musah scores first USMNT goal of Pochettino era

Milan midfielder Yunus Musah scored his first international goal and the United States’ first under new head coach Mauricio Pochettino in a 2-0 win over Panama in a friendly in Austin in the early hours of Sunday.

Musah acted as a regular in midfield alongside his Serie A colleague Gianluca Busio and Milan teammate Christian Pulisic, who was one of Pochettino’s first three players.

It was Pulisic who secured the assist for Musah’s opening goal. The Rossoneri striker combined with Brendan Aaronson on the left before sending an enticing cross for Musah, who volleyed the ball into the goal.

It was the 21-year-old’s first international goal in his 42nd international match.
