USA’s Christian Pulisic Scores Personal Best League Goal of the Season for Milan
It was a moment of pure brilliance for USA’s Christian Pulisic as he scored his 10th goal of the season for AC Milan in their 3-0 win over Lecce in Serie A on Saturday. This goal not only secured the win for Milan, but it also marked a personal best for Pulisic in a league season.
At just 25 years old, Pulisic has already made a name for himself in the world of soccer. He joined Milan last summer with hopes of reviving his club career after a disappointing end to his four-year stay at Chelsea. And it seems like he has found his stride with the Italian club.
His goal against Lecce surpassed his previous best of nine goals in the 2019-20 English Premier League for Chelsea. Pulisic also has three goals in Europe and has already bettered his overall scoring record.
But it’s not just his goal-scoring abilities that have caught the attention of Milan manager Stefano Pioli. In a recent interview with Kosport Magazine, Pioli praised Pulisic’s attitude and work ethic, saying, “He is an exemplary professional and hard worker who will help the team to get stronger.”
And it’s clear that Pulisic’s hard work is paying off. His early goal against Lecce set the tone for the rest of the match, with Olivier Giroud and Rafael Leão also scoring for Milan. Lecce played the entire second half with 10 men after forward Nikola Krstović was sent off.
Milan’s win not only solidified their second-place spot in Serie A, but it also closed the gap between them and league leaders Inter Milan to just 11 points. And with a Europa League quarterfinal against Roma coming up, it’s clear that Pulisic and his teammates are determined to finish the season strong.
