Malcom is a smashing player who deserved his goal, says Sergio Busquets

Sergio Busquets says Malcom fully deserved his goal after the Brazilian scored on his Champions League debut against Inter at the San Siro.

Malcom arrived as a second-half substitute for Ousmane Dembele, and it looked like he’d netted the winner as he opened the scoring on 83 minutes.

However, Mauro Icardi equalised four minutes later to rescue a point for Inter, although Busquets felt his side deserved all three.

“I think we merited much more than a draw - we were more ambitious than Inter. In the second half we played more openly, created more - perhaps we risked too much.
