Christian Pulisic has been in fine form early in AC Milan’s season, scoring his third goal of the Serie A campaign in a 2-1 Milan Derby victory over rivals Inter.
Pulisic opened the scoring for AC Milan with an impressive individual effort. The 26-year-old stole possession on Inter’s side of the field in the 10th minute, sprinted into the box, and slotted home to give AC Milan a 1-0 lead.
Inter equalized in the 27th minute through Federico Dimarco, but AC Milan secured the win in stoppage time as Matteo Gabbia converted Tijjani Reijnders’ free kick for a 2-1 victory.
Pulisic played 78 minutes, registering two tackles, winning three duels, and making three defensive recoveries. With four goals and two assists in six appearances this season, he has been a key player for AC Milan.
The win moved AC Milan to seventh place in the Serie A table, tied on eight points with Inter. They will close out their September schedule against Lecce on Friday.
