Pulisic scores to move Milan top of Serie A after intense finale; Juventus wins Torino derby
The HinduChristian Pulisic came off the bench to score a ‘Made in America’ late goal in AC Milan’s 1-0 win at Genoa after an intense finale on Saturday as the Rossoneri took a two-point lead at the top of Serie A. Pulisic combined with United States teammate Yunus Musah to net the winner three minutes from full-time. His vital double save in the 14th minute of injury time came as he ended the match wearing the goalkeeper’s gloves and jersey after Mike Maignan was sent off. Milan goalkeeper Maignan was shown a straight red card in the eighth minute of stoppage time following a collision with Genoa forward Caleb Ekuban. Filip Kostić whipped in a corner from the right and Moise Kean’s overhead kick was cleared off the line by Torino captain Ricardo Rodríguez, who also tried to do the same on Federico Gatti’s follow-up.
