Pulisic Fires AC Milan to Victory Over Venezia
Christian Pulisic struck early to guide AC Milan to a 2-0 win over Venezia in their Serie A encounter, with the American international scoring just five minutes into the match at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo.
The second goal came deep into stoppage time—on the 96th minute—when Santiago Giménez found the net for the first time in the league since February 15, sealing the three points for the visitors.
The night also marked a personal milestone for Pulisic, who now boasts a “double-double” season—reaching 10 goals and 10 assists in Serie A, a first in his European club career.
Despite the victory, it was status quo in the league table. Sérgio Conceição’s side remain in 9th place, with just four matches remaining in the 2024/25 campaign.
