PULISIC IS THE MVP FROM GENOA vs. AC MILAN
Awards
Three valuable points in Genoa just before the international break, three points that also bear the signature of Christian Pulisic. The previous meeting in 2023 has been repeated in 2026, with the Hershey native earning the Rossoneri fans' vote as Man of the Match following our 11th Serie A fixture, Genoa 1-2 AC Milan. At Ferraris, Chris scored his fourth goal of the season, confirming the excellent form he had already showcased against Lecce, Atalanta and Inter.
Because when Pulisic scores, in the 2026/27 season, AC Milan wins. Four games, four victories for Amorim's side, which once again benefited from the tactical and technical versatility of its no. 11. Initially deployed as an attacking midfielder behind Ramos, Chris also adapted seamlessly to a wide role, finding the back of the net for a second consecutive league game.
An important statistic, as back-to-back goals in Serie A had not been achieved since the period between November and December 2025. Following the difficulties he encountered during the first few months of 2026, several performances now point to a player who has fully recovered, is in excellent physical condition, and has an extra spring in his step following his recent contract extension. His performance in Genoa was an impressive one, also featuring two chances created, three tackles won and 57 touches in 76 minutes of action.
Chris won over 43% of the fans who cast their votes on the AC Milan Official App, finishing ahead of three other key figures in the victory over Genoa: the day's opening goalscorer, Alphadjo Cisse, and a pair of defenders who proved both reliable and influential at the back for Amorim's side, Mario Gila and Koni De Winter. Total kudos goes to Pulisic, who was decisive against Genoa once again: let's go, Chris!
