16-year-old Juventus starlet becomes first player born in this millennium to appear in the Champions League

Juventus forward Moise Kean became the first player born in this millennium to play in the Champions League when he appeared as a substitute in his team's 3-1 win away to three-time Europa League champions Sevilla.

Kean, who was just 16 years and 267 days old on Tuesday, climbed off the bench at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan with just six minutes remaining, his arrival quickly coinciding with Juventus moving back ahead on their way to victory.

With the game level at 1-1 and Sevilla down to 10 men following the first-half sending off of Franco Vazquez, the Italian giants needed a goal.
