Following a match between Manchester United and AC Milan, United head coach Ruben Amorim expressed surprise at the contrast in performances from two Milan players. Amorim highlighted that Yunus Musah, often considered a squad player, was a starter and effective, while Luka Modric, a Ballon d'Or winner and marquee signing, struggled or created issues. The remark, captured in a press conference or post-match interview, underscores the unexpected tactical outcomes of the fixture and raises questions about Milan's reliance on their experienced playmaker.
