Important victory for Stefano Pioli's Milan, as they now sit top of the table unopposed with a two-point lead over Inter, who drew at home to Bologna. The win came thanks to 'Captain America', as fans like to call him. Pulisic, in fact, has scored his fourth goal of the season in Serie A.
Until that point, however, Genoa had the best chance, with a shot from Dragusin that was deflected by Reijnders and required a real miracle from Maignan to save.
As reported by Tuttosport, thanks to seven wins in their first eight games, Milan are top of the league for the first time since winning the Scudetto on May 22, 2022. This is an important start to the season for Milan, who want to build on their good form in recent months.
AC Milan's changes...
Compared to the game against Dortmund, Stefano Pioli made several changes, completely overhauling the attack and leaving Pulisic, Giroud, and Leao on the bench. This was a risk for the Milan coach, who decided to give more playing time to those who had played few minutes up to that point in the season.
The first half was a bit static for those who started, and they struggled to create chances. In the end, the Rossoneri were able to win a game that was not going their way thanks to their starters.
