Pulisic covered just about every blade of grass at San Siro, with the 26-year-old popping up in every position but between the sticks. Quizzed on that by at the end of a draining contest, Pulisic said: “I have to ask [Mike] Maignan! True, I played in every position, but I am happy because we deserved the victory.”
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Milan suffered back-to-back defeats in domestic and European competition heading into the last international break, but have now returned to winning ways and are looking to add greater consistency to their game. Pulisic added, while speaking fluent Italian: “We have to take this game and gain confidence, continuing like this we can win many games.”
GettyWHAT NEXT?
Pulisic is clearly fully adjusted to life in Milan on and off the field, having recently been joined in Italy by his golf professional girlfriend Alexa Melton, and will believe that there is more to come from him during an impressive run of form.
