After the midweek Champions League setback at the hands of Borussia Dortmund, Milan returned to winning ways in front of their own fans by beating Frosinone 3-1 to keep the pressure up on Juventus and Inter.
Luka Jovic broke his duck with a well-taken volley towards the end of the first half and then Pulisic collected Mike Maignan’s long ball before dribbling around multiple players and finding the top corner to make it 2-0
Fikayo Tomori’s close-range finish from a fantastic corner routine put the result beyond doubt, even though Marco Brescianini’s free-kick did ruin the clean sheet.
Pulisic spoke to DAZN after the game to reflect on a win that was very much needed, with his comments relayed by MilanNews.
“It’s very important. We won against Fiorentina, we wanted to win [tonight]. We think game by game, we prepared a lot for them,” he said.
“Maignan best in the world? For me he is, he made a fantastic save. The assist is too.”
