"Pulisic, aka Captain America, was set to miss the match at Torino will illness and fever but made the bench. The team without had managed to fall 2-0 behind courtesy of a handball penalty, not controversial for once and a goal conceded from a familiar foe, Duvan Zapata. Rabiot's long rage shot had swerved under the cross bar to narrow the deficit but Milan were looking less than convincing. Pulisic brushed aside his illness and was sent on."
"Leao who had been subbed off due to injury just after the half hour mark will miss this match, and perhaps another week or two. He will likely be replaced with Nkunku. Nkunku has become the subject of failure and flop calls and it is difficult to judge what will transpire between now and the next two transfer windows. In the middle Ricci has been getting into rhythm and should remain a starter, perhaps even after Fofana returns from injury."
Christian Pulisic overcame illness and fever to make the bench at Torino, enter the match, and score to spark Milan's comeback from 2-0 down after a Zapata goal and a handball penalty. Rabiot had earlier reduced the deficit with a long-range shot. Leao exited with an injury and will miss upcoming matches; Nkunku is the likely replacement amid criticism over his form. Ricci has gained rhythm and should keep a starting spot even after Fofana returns. Saelemaekers, Modric, Rabiot and Bartesaghi are expected to start. Tomori, Gabbia and Pavlovic lead defensive choices, with Maignan starting in goal.
