Christian Pulisic is the MVP from AC Milan v Sassuolo. The Milanisti, in their masses, put in their vote through the AC Milan Official App for the American, who received 57% ahead of Bennacer, assist provider for his goal, and Calabria. Easy to explain why the forward was confirmed the best player on the day, after his goal decided the game, sealing an important league win.
In general, Pulisic was one of the liveliest Rossoneri players at San Siro: constant movement, a few attempts on goal, the great setup for Reijnders' big chance just before taking the lead. And then the goal: a look at Bennacer gave him the idea to cut in behind Tressoldi; a delicate right foot finish that Consigli touched, but wasn't enough. Cold, ruthless, passionate in celebration.
Praise for our number 11 also came from Coach Pioli: "He is an outstanding player; he's scoring a lot, and that's not a given for a wide player. Plus, he's a fantastic guy, I hold him dearly". He now has seven goals for the season, six in Serie A and one in the Champions League, and with one curious detail: when he scores, AC Milan win. Always: Bologna, Torino, Lazio, Genoa, Frosinone, Newcastle and Sassuolo.
It is his first MVP award since August, but from then on, however, there have been no shortages of excellent performances. He is becoming a consistent reference point for the team, having also made four assists so far, and is the Rossoneri's second-leading scorer behind Giroud. On the pitch from the first minute to the last in the 1-0 win over the Neroverdi, he played a total 61 balls, 30 successful passes, four crosses, conceded four fouls created three chances. Oh yes, Chris!
