Samuel Chukwueze was delighted to contribute to AC Milan’s UEFA Champions League victory over Club Brugge.
Paulo Fonseca’s side defeated the Belgian Pro League champions 3-1 at the San Siro on Tuesday night.
Chukwueze was introduced on the hour mark in place of Portugal international, Rafael Leao.
The 25-year-old provided the assist for Tijjani Reijnder’s third goal.
“It’s a great moment, having this confidence. I’ve had a difficult month and scoring, and finding an assist is a great feeling and gives me confidence.
“Very very important for the team and for the club. We won and we have the chance to climb the table.”
The Rooseneri will take on holders Real Madrid in their next game.
He emphasised the importance of winning the game.
“I hope to win against Madrid, it’s important to gain points in the standings. But now the most important thing is to focus on the next match, against Bologna,” he added.
