Ghanaian forward Malik Abubakari featured for Malmo FF in their 3-0 defeat to Juventus in the UEFA Champions League Group H opener on Tuesday.

The 21-year-old climbed off the bench in the 59th to replace Veljko Birmancevic as his side suffered a humiliating loss at home.

Malmo made an impressive start to the game as Juve were under pressure early on in Sweden before Alex Sandro's low header gave the Italians the lead.

Two goals in the space of 86 seconds at the end of the first half then took the game away from Malmo.

Paulo Dybala scored from the spot after Morata, 28, was fouled by Lasse Nielsen before Morata's clever lob made it 3-0.

Abubakari joined Malmo in the summer transfer window from Moreirense and has made seven appearances for the club so far this season.
