What happened. Adrien Rabiot came off the bench to provide an assist for Alphadjo Cisse and then scored himself, helping AC Milan to a 2-1 comeback victory away to Torino.

Rabiot had not played since the World Cup third-place match.
He was given extra time off, which caused controversy in Italy.
Rabiot says he understood coach Amorim's ideas after just one week of training.

“I understood what the coach wants, what he expects from me, and I’m glad to have contributed a goal and assist.”
— Adrien Rabiot
