Christian Pulisic had his best club season of his career with AC Milan in the previous campaign. A Pulisic goal vs Parma on Saturday during Milan’s 2-1 defeat showed that he looks poised for another fruitful year of goals.
Let’s start with the good news and Pulisic’s goal.
The USMNT forward equalized in the second half for Milan with one of the easier goals of his life. Rafael Leão did the hard work to get the ball deep into Parma’s box. Pulisic then made the right run at the right time to be wide open for a tap in.

We have good news and bad news United States men’s national team fans. The good news is that we have an amazing Tim Weah goal vs Como goal to watch. The bad news is that he scored the goal with a hamstring injury that will see him miss time.
Juventus opened their new campaign with a 3-0 victory against newly promoted Como 1907 on Monday. USMNT forward Weah was given the start at right wing.
Last season Weah was used in a more defensive wingback position. He proved his worth as a forward with a beautiful goal in first half stoppage time to extend his side’s lead to 2-0.
Spaniard Cesc Fabregas has been appointed as head coach of Como, where he is a minority shareholder, after leading them to promotion to Serie A as assistant and interim coach last season, the club said on Friday.
Former Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea midfielder Fabregas ended his playing career at Como in 2023 and became an assistant coach at the club. The 37-year-old took over as interim coach in November after head coach Moreno Longo was fired.

Captain America had the best individual season of his career.
Christian Pulisic found no trouble in acclimating his talents to the Serie A since signing for AC Milan last summer, providing 25 goal contributions across all competitions for the Rossoneri. He sealed his incredible tally with a clean assist against Salernitana in the final game of the season.
Christian Pulisic assisted Milan’s third goal in their 3-3 draw vs. Salernitana to add an exclamation point to his first season with the Italian giants. The 2023-24 Pulisic stats reflect a forward playing with supreme confidence.
