Pulisic hails ‘amazing result’ against Real Madrid: “A really special night” | OneFootball

AC Milan winger Christian Pulisic has admitted that it is hard to pick his favourite position as he reflected on a memorable night against Real Madrid.

Milan took the lead at the Santiago Bernabeu early on and Pulisic had a hand in it as his near-post corner found Malick Thiaw’s head, but then Vinicius Junior won and converted a penalty to level things not long after.

The Rossoneri would roar back and score two more goals to claim a famous win. The first came from Alvaro Morata as he pounced on a rebound just before the break, then after that Tijjani Reijnders fired in from close range.

It is not only a win that propels Milan up the table in the Champions League but also gives them a bit of belief after a difficult start under Paulo Fonseca.

Pulisic was interviewed by CBS Sports after the full-time whistle and he gave his thoughts on what was a memorable European night for the Rossoneri.

“Amazing result for us. I mean to come here and play is, of course, not easy [because of] their history in the Champions League,” he said.

“A tough place to come and play, so for us to put on a performance like that and win the game, obviously a really special night for us.

“My favourite position? It’s hard for me to choose a position, anywhere in the offensive third where I can attack and help my team score, I like it. This year I’ve also played a lot in the centre. I’m very versatile. I can’t tell you what my favourite position is.

“Our coach just said enjoy tonight, we got to rest up tomorrow because we’ve got a big game coming this weekend and if we don’t win that one then this doesn’t mean anything. So we’re going to try to enjoy as a team tonight, have a little celebration, but tomorrow it’s right back to work.”
