The Christian Pulisic Olimpico goal vs. Club Brugge saw the AC Milan star find the back of the net in the most peculiar of ways.
Milan were on the backfoot in the first half as a feisty Brugge side had several quality chances to take the lead. The Italian giants needed something special and who better to count on than their man in form, Pulisic.
In the 34th minute Pulisic swung in a corner kick that somehow avoided everyone and crossed the line. A Brugge defender tried to clear the ball but was too late.

How has Pulisic pulled that one off??
This is Captain America’s second Champions League goal of the season for Milan and his 10th time finding the back of the net in Europe’s biggest club competition. No American player in history has more Champions League goals than Pulisic.
The latest goal adds to his incredible tally this year and is his ninth game this season with a goal contribution (goal or assist). Pulisic has seven goals and three assists through 11 games so far this season.
