Abraham delighted to set up ‘best friend’ Reijnders: “I’m a team player” | OneFootball

Tammy Abraham played a big part in AC Milan’s win against Como, and was happy to set up his ‘best friend’ Tijjani Reijnders for the decisive goal.

Milan fell behind against Como in the first half when Luca Da Cunha provided a lovely finish from the edge of the box after good work from Nico Paz and Assane Diao down the left side.

However, the usual saviours then came forward for the Rossoneri in the second half to manufacture yet another comeback under Sergio Conceicao. It started with Christian Pulisic’s equaliser from a Reijnders assist.

Then, the Dutchman turned provider to scorer as he latched onto Abraham’s excellent through ball and finished at the near post to make it 2-1, which it would remain.

Tammy Abraham spoke to DAZN (via MilanNews) after the full-time whistle to give his take on a game that Milan again started poorly but again emerged victorious in.

Don’t you know Italian yet?

“I can do it a little in Italian. The important thing is that we are happy, we needed this win going into the break, it can give us some confidence.”

You came on and did well…

“This is what I do! Every time I come on the pitch, I want to help the team as much as possible, with goals, assists, defending, I’m a team player. He’s one of my best friends in the team, so I’m happy.”
