Christian Pulisic scores 'Olimpico' goal for AC Milan in UCL - ESPN

Christian Pulisic continued his sensational start to the season on Tuesday, scoring directly from a corner in AC Milan's UEFA Champions League match against Belgium's Club Brugge.

The United States star opened the scoring in the 34th minute at the San Siro, sending in an in-swinging corner from the left that deceived the goalkeeper and defenders and somehow missed everyone before bouncing into the net beyond the despairing attempted clearance on the goal line.

The effort was the first «Olimpico» goal of Pulisic's career and took him to 10 goal contributions in his past 10 games for club and country. It was also the 26-year-old's second goal in three Champions League games this season, after scoring in Milan's opening defeat to Liverpool last month.

In Serie A, Pulisic has scored five goals and added three assists in eight games this campaign. He also registered an assist in Mauricio Pochettino's first game in charge of the USMNT, against Panama earlier this month.

Just six minutes after Pulisic's goal, Brugge were reduced to 10 men when Raphael Onyedika was shown a straight red card.
