Watch: Adli’s assist for Leao compared to Rui Costa’s for Shevchenko

Yacine Adli’s assist for Rafael Leao’s goal against Lecce on Saturday afternoon has drawn comparisons with a famous pass from Rui Costa to Andriy Shevchenko.

Milan’s third of the afternoon was the result of a great counter attack. Lecce entered the box through Almqvist, who was brought down. However, the referee continued the game, and the visitors were caught asleep.

Adli found Leao storming into the Lecce half, and after no challenge from the defender, the 24-year-old slotted the ball past Falcone. It was a perfectly weighted pass from the Franco-Algerian, and it has drawn comparisons with Rui Costa’s pass for Shevchenko.
