Christian Pulisic has picked up where he left off, scoring twice in two games for AC Milan including a late equalizer against Inter Milan in the Italian Super Cup final that came after a month away with a calf injury.
Pulisic was injured in the first half of Milan’s 2-1 loss at Atalanta on December 6, short-circuiting another sweet season in Milan (albeit one that’s seen the Rossonerri languishing just above mid-table).
He returned Friday to score in a 2-1 win over Juventus, going 90 minutes, then upped the drama in another full 90 on Monday.

Milan trailed 2-1 when Pulisic got the ball off opening goalscorer Theo Hernandez, spun and slotted a low finish past Yann Sommer in the 80th minute.
Milan wouldn’t need extra time to collect some silverware, as Tammy Abraham delivered a 3-2 win in stoppage time.
Pulisic, 26, now has 10 goals and six assists in 21 appearances this season. He has a chance to threaten his career-best 2023-24 campaign with Milan, when he scored 15 times with 11 assists in 50 matches.
This is very, very good to see for Mauricio Pochettino and the USMNT.
