Watch as Christian Pulisic continues his fine form for AC Milan with incredible strike against Lecce as USMNT star gears up for this summer’s Copa America

Christian Pulisic continued his good form for AC Milan on Saturday with an incredible goal against Lecce at San Siro.

The American star opened the scoring in the sixth minute of Saturday’s Serie A match.

Teammate Samuel Chukwueze dribbled down the right flank to start the game. After passing through the defenders and heading towards the penalty area, Chuwueze played a diagonal pass to Pulisic, who was waiting at the top of the penalty area.

Pulisic received the ball with his left foot and cut inside with his right before striking the ball with his weaker left foot.

The ball floated over Lecce’s defense with great speed before diving past goalkeeper Wladimiro Falcone.

Pulisic and AC Milan are second in Serie A after winning their last five matches

The goal came during Pulisic’s 25th start in his first season with the Italian side. Before heading to Milan, the Hershey, Pennsylvania native recorded 36 goals between Borussia Dortmund and Chelsea.

His impact was immediate as Pulisic now has nine goals and six assists for the club. Milan have won their last five games after a 1-1 draw against Atalanta on February 25.

They sit second in the table with 71 points, a significant lead over third-placed Juventus’ 59. However, league leaders and local rivals Inter have a comfortable 79 points at the top of the table.

His good form for the club comes after he helped his national team win the CONCACAF Nations Cup title against Mexico on March 24. Pulisic captained the United States and played a big role in a 2-0 win over Mexico.

Pulisic and his team are also preparing for the Copa America tournament, which will take place in the United States this summer. The Americans are favored to get out of Group C, where they will face Uruguay, Panama and Bolivia.
