Pulisic laughs about ‘competition’ with Leao and praises Milan performance | OneFootball

Christian Pulisic spoke to the media after AC Milan’s convincing 4-0 win at Udinese and agreed that it was their best performance under Sergio Conceicao’s guidance.

Unlike previous games, Milan came out swinging and could have had the lead within the first minute, but Tijjani Reijnders missed his big chance. Nevertheless, the Rossoneri kept plugging away and eventually broke the deadlock, which opened the floodgates for the 4-0 win.

Pulisic got the assist for the second goal with a nice corner, picking out Strahinja Pavlovic in the box, and he was naturally very happy after the game. Speaking to DAZN and Sky, as transcribed by MilanNews, he agreed that it was their best performance under Conceicao.

Milan’s best match with Conceicao?

“Yes, without a doubt. We won 4-0, very good.”

A nice battle of assists between you and Leao…

“We have a good competition between the two of us (laughs). He’s fantastic when he plays like that.”

On Maignan…

“It’s important that Mike is feeling good, our thoughts are with him.”

Is this the right formation?

“It worked today. So yes, I like it.”

How important is it to beat Inter?

“We take it day by day. We have to do well in the next match against Atalanta. It’s important against Inter: if we do things well, we can win.”

Milan will be up against Atalanta next, as the American said, and it will be important to continue on the winning path to build confidence ahead of the Inter game. If they can play like tonight, then reaching the final of the competition is indeed possible.
