The night Jens Petter Hauge was proclaimed champion of the Norwegian league with Bodø / Glimt, he was replaced by Milan on the road to Napoli in the 73rd minute.
In extra time, he made it 3-1 after rounding Kostas Manolas.
– He’s rude and free-spirited, and has no one against him. It is Manolas who dribbles. It does exactly what it’s done in the Elite Series a ton of times. It is so safe, fun, rude and well done. And then he could really introduce himself. Away goals against Celtic and away goals against Napoli, commented TV 2 soccer expert Simen Stamsø-Møller.
His Swedish teammate Zlatan Ibrahimovic pleasantly secured the league leaders’ first two goals. The first a 13-14 meter header before he was in the right place at the right time and volleyed after the break. Dries Mertens reduced for Napoli, and shortly after his teammate Tiemoué Bakayoko was sent off.
Hauge had just six minutes with Ibrahimovic, who sat up and held onto the back of his left thigh after hitting a pole. He was still on his feet and clapped his familiar smile when Hauge scored his first Italian league goal. The 39-year-old, who is the top scorer in Serie A with ten goals, limped off the field.
While Hauge was sitting on the bench, his former club Bodø / Glimt became league champion in the Eliteserien. There he managed to play 18 games and score 14 goals and assist eight goals before going to Italy. The big season meant Milan paid just over 50 million crowns for him earlier this fall.
Milan leads Serie A with 20 points after eight games, two points ahead of Sassuolo, who beat Greece Verona 2-0 on Sunday. Roma, Juventus and Inter are still in the following places.
