U.S. men's national team midfielder Yunus Musah delivered a pinpoint cross to striker Noah Okafor in the 96th minute of Milan's clash with Torino on Saturday, securing a dramatic 2-2 draw for the Rossoneri on the opening day of the Serie A season.
After finding themselves down 2-0 with minutes left, an 89th-minute goal from debutant Alvaro Morata earned them one back, with Okafor's late equalizer earning them a point.

The Paulo Fonseca era at Milan started Saturday, but the manager won't be happy with the opening 70 minutes of the contest. The two late goals earned them a point, but their performance overall left much to be desired in the attack.
Fellow U.S. international Christian Pulisic was removed for Musah midway through the second half, while Morata made his way onto the pitch as well, with both claiming a late goal contribution.
With a long campaign ahead of them, there's plenty of room to grow, but it wasn't the most impressive start from Fonseca's crew.
For Musah, it's a massive boost for his confidence as he looks to push for a role in the starting XI going forward.
WHAT NEXT FOR MILAN?
Milan are back in action on Aug. 24 against Parma as they search for their first three points of the Serie A season.
