As reported in this morning's print edition of Il Corriere dello Sport, it seems that Pioli's AC Milan will face Luis Enrique's Paris Saint-Germain with a crisis in the attacking department. Besides pointing out the goal drought of the starting centre-forward Olivier Giroud, it is important to remind our readers that there will not be many choices from the bench unfortunately.
In fact, the only choice for Stefano Pioli in attack is Luka Jovic, who is yet to find the right pace and form to excel in his new team. The choices are very limited.
Noah Okafor, as we have explained to you yesterday, is not be available due to muscle fatigue. In addition to the Swiss talent, even Samuel Chukwueze, who is a right-winger, will not be there due to an injury he suffered while playing for the Nigeria national team. Luka Romero, the other talented winger will be missing out on the game because he was not included in the UEFA list.
The weight and responsibility of the attacking phase and the need to score against a strong team such as Paris Saint-Germain, therefore, falls on the shoulders of Christian Pulisic, Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud.
