after the 2024–25 UEFA Champions League, Christian Pulisic opened his account after just three minutes.

At the San Siro, Pulisic gave AC Milan the early advantage over Liverpool but the Reds rallied for a 3-1 triumph. This was Pulisic’s seventh UCL campaign in which he scored a goal.

After three minutes, Pulisic drove the home crowd into a frenzy, with AC Milan applying early pressure. After sprinting into the Liverpool box, Pulisic scored the first goal with a low right-footed strike that found the bottom-left corner.

It was his third goal of the summer for the Rossoneri in all competitions.Before the half, though, Liverpool would rally as both of their center backs found the scoreboard. Before Virgil Van Dijk put the Reds ahead four minutes before halftime, Ibrahim Konate headed home Trent Alexander-Arnold’s cross in the 23rd minute to make it 1-1.

Dominik Szoboszlai gave Liverpool a 3-1 lead, adding insult to injury for AC Milan.

One of AC Milan’s few strong points throughout the game was Pulisic, who won three duels, completed one tackle, and attempted one dribble. Yunus Musah, a fellow member of the USMNT, did not play off the bench.
