Muriel: Serie A’s new record sub scorer

Breaking Matri's best with the goal against Monza

With the goal scored against Monza in injury time to make it 5-2, Luis Muriel has become the player with the highest tally of goals scored after coming off the bench in the Serie A ever since the advent of the three points per win era.

According to data provided by Opta, having Muriel racked up 26 nets scored after coming on as a substitute, the Cafetero striker has indeed bested Alessandro Matri’s previous record of 25 goals. Additionally, it was also Lucho’s 101st Serie A goal in his career and his 62nd as an Atalanta player in all competitions.
