Champions League: Bittersweet night for Pioli as Milan ends English curse, beats Newcastle United 2-1

The Hindu  

AC Milan finally ended its jinx away to English clubs in Europe as it beat Newcastle United 2-1 in its final Champions league Group F game on Wednesday but it was a bittersweet night for the Serie A side. “It’s a massive accomplishment,” Pulisic, who is the first American to score for three different teams in the Champions League, said. Asked what he had learned from Newcastle’s first foray in the Champions League for 20 years, manager Eddie Howe said, “So much. We’ve gone into games very limited in what we can do and that hasn’t helped us.” While Howe said missing out on the last 16 was devastating, the fact that his side is not even in the Europa League might be a blessing in disguise as it tries to make up ground in the Premier League and qualify for next year’s Champions League.
