Christian Pulisic Shines as AC Milan Secures Victory Against Genoa
AC Milan secured three vital points in Genoa just before the international break, with a standout performance from Christian Pulisic. The match replicated the previous meeting in 2023, concluding with a score of Genoa 1-2 AC Milan. Pulisic, hailing from Hershey, Pennsylvania, earned the title of Man of the Match as he netted his fourth goal of the season, building on his impressive display against Lecce, Atalanta, and Inter.
When Pulisic scores, AC Milan consistently wins. So far this season, the team has claimed victory in all four matches where Pulisic found the back of the net. Throughout the encounter, Pulisic showcased his tactical and technical adaptability, initially playing as an attacking midfielder before shifting to a wide position. His goal marked a second consecutive league game with a score, highlighting his upward trajectory this season.
Notably, Pulisic’s achievement of scoring back-to-back goals in Serie A marks a significant milestone, as it hadn’t occurred since late 2025. After facing challenges earlier in the year, Pulisic’s recent performances indicate a player in excellent physical condition, bolstered by a recent contract extension. In his performance against Genoa, he also contributed by creating two chances, winning three tackles, and completing 57 touches over 76 minutes.
Fans showed their appreciation for Pulisic, as he secured more than 43% of the votes in the AC Milan Official App, outperforming other key players in the match, including the opening goalscorer Alphadjo Cisse and strong defensive figures Mario Gila and Koni De Winter. Pulisic’s impact against Genoa has not gone unnoticed: let’s go, Chris!
