Yunus Musah didn’t start Atalanta’s UEFA Champions League clash with Club Brugge on Tuesday but had a vital say in the final scoreline. Musah delivered the game-winning assist as the Serie A hosts defeated Club Brugge 2-1 in Bergamo. The American midfielder entered the match as a second-half substitute and delivered his first goal contribution for his new club. Christos Tzolis propelled the visitors in front after 38 minutes, giving Club Brugge a 1-0 lead that they would take into the break. However, Atalanta would rally in the second half to flip the match in its favor.Lazar Samardzic’s 74th-minute penalty kick finish tied the score at 1-1 before Musah contributed on the go-ahead goal. Samardzic’s corner kick was flicked on by Musah in the 18-yard box, allowing Mario Pasalic the chance to finish into the back of the net. It marked Musah’s first goal contribution at club level since January 26.

It was a lively cameo from the 22-year-old, who had made four previous appearances since arriving on loan from AC Milan. Atalanta will next host Como in Serie A play on Saturday with Musah seeking a start ahead of potential U.S. men’s national team duty.
