The USMNT players club roundup starts in the Europa League, where AC Milan advanced with a 5-3 aggregate win over Rennes.
Christian Pulisic subbed out in the 61st minute and Yunus Musah subbed out in the 80th minute of AC Milan’s 3-2 second-leg loss at Rennes. Rennes opened the scoring on the night in the 11th with Luka Jovic equalizing for AC Milan in the 22nd. Rennes converted a penalty in the 54th with Rafael Leao leveling the score on the night in the 58th. Rennes converted another penalty in the 68th minute.
Johnny Cardoso’s Real Betis exited the Europa Conference League 2-1 on aggregate after drawing 1-1 at Dinamo Zagreb. Cedric Bakambu scored for Real Betis in the 38th, but Dinamo equalized in the 59th minute.
Timmy Chandler subbed on in the 81st minute of Eintracht’s 2-1 home loss to Union Saint-Gilloise, exiting 4-3 on aggregate. Paxten Aaronson wasn’t in the squad for Eintracht. Falling behind on the night 2-0 to goals in the 47th and 80th minutes, Eric Junior Dina Ebimbe scored for Eintracht in the 87th. Chandler saw yellow in the 82nd minute.
“Getting knocked out is very, very hard to take,” Chandler told his club’s official site. “We had our objectives and wanted to go a long way. Those dreams are all over. We weren’t able to assert ourselves over two legs against Saint-Gilloise and deservedly lost. We started very sluggishly, there was a lack of passion. The fans turned up but we didn’t on the pitch.”
The Concacaf Champions Cup continued with Cincinnati taking a 2-0 lead at Cavalier. Sergio Santos put Cincinnati up five minutes into first-half stoppage time and Malik Pinto doubled the lead in the 87th minute. Nashville won 3-0 at Moca. Hany Mukhtar opened the scoring in the 12th, Sam Surridge made it 2-0 in the 24th, and Tyler Boyd finished off the Nashville goals in the 75th minute.
