Watch: Leao gives Milan lead against Bari with header before going off injured

Rafael Leao got his name on the scoresheet against Bari, getting the first goal of the new season and of Massimiliano Allegri’s new era.

In the 14th minute, the first goal of Allegri’s second reign came and it was through Leao. The rather unlikely supplier was Fikayo Tomori who whipped in a beautiful cross from a right-back position, which the Portuguese forward headed in powerfully.

😍 The fans loved that @RafaeLeao7 goal!

Unfortunately for Leao, his joy would be short-lived as the winger then had to come off within a couple of minutes, having felt some discomfort in his calf.
