On September 28, 2025, AC Milan secured a crucial victory over Napoli in a thrilling Serie A encounter. The hero of the match was American midfielder Christian Pulisic, who produced a moment of magic to set up Milan's opening goal.
Just three minutes into the game, Pulisic gathered the ball inside his own half and embarked on a sensational solo run. The USMNT star sprinted away from debutant Luca Marianucci, shrugged off a tackle, and calmly rolled the ball across for Alexis Saelemaekers to tap in the simplest of finishes.
