Pulisic sets sights on Coppa Italia trophy: “You can’t say it’s a bad season” | OneFootball

Christian Pulisic spoke to the media after AC Milan’s 3-1 win over Bologna and among other things, he shared his thoughts on the importance of beating the Rossoblu on Wednesday.

Tonight’s clash has been seen as a game of preparation by both sets of fans, with Milan and Bologna taking on each other in the Coppa Italia final on Wednesday. In other words, the Rossoneri passed with flying colours even if a comeback was needed.

Speaking to Sky Italia and DAZN after the game, as transcribed by MilanNews, Pulisic shared his thoughts on the win and how much it would mean to lift the Coppa Italia trophy. Titles make a difference seems to be the message from the American.

On the win…

“We have found a bit of continuity and it’s important for us.”

On the Coppa Italia final…

“If you win two titles, you can’t say it’s a bad season.”

On the season and Conceicao…

“We are not satisfied with the season. We try to work as best we can with him. We want to finish the season in the best possible way.”

On the fans’ contribution…

“They always bring a lot of energy for us, the fans are very important and we need them on Wednesday.”

A comeback Milan…

“This team has a great spirit. Our fans always help us, as do those who come in (pointing to Gimenez).”

How much does Gimenez deserve these goals?

“A lot. The MVP award should have been his.”

With one goal and one assist, the winger was handed a 7/10 in our player ratings, so nearly as good as Santiago Gimenez at 7.5/10. If it hadn’t been for a good chance missed in the first half, Pulisic would have got the same.
