Then, with less than three minutes of normal time left Pulisic turned scorer as he cut in on his left foot from the right edge of the box and found the top corner with a rocket of a shot. However, Monza would go on to score twice more and win 4-2.
😍 @pulisic WHAT A GOAL!

That Pulisic goal though… Wow. What a confidence and what a drive. He actually wanted Milan to get points. Unlike the other winger(s).
