Christian Pulisic finds the net, Yunus Musah delivers game-winning assist as Milan come from behind to beat Parma

Two USMNT stars played big roles as Milan left it late to beat relegation-threatened Parma Sunday. Christian Pulisic scored his 12th goal of the season, and turned in an impressive attacking performance despite being limited to just 15 minutes midweek.

Yunus Musah, too, played a role. His early error gave Parma a goal, but he rebounded in style, completing the most dribbles in the match and delivering a sublime 95th-minute assist to snatch an uncomfortable 3-2 win.

Pulisic's participation was uncertain before the game. The USMNT attacking midfielder has struggled with various knocks in recent weeks, and new Milan manager Sergio Conceicao didn't guarantee that the American would be able to play 90 minutes. But Pulisic provided all the same, scoring from the spot. He has never missed a penalty for club and country, taking 10 and finding the net on all 10 occasions.

The win could prove to be crucial in the scope of Milan's season. It took them up to sixth place, three points behind Juventus with a game in hand. Sunday's victory completed an agreeable week, coming off the back of a win over Girona in the Champions League that put them firmly in the picture for automatic qualification for the round of 16.

Conceicao's solid start to his Milan tenure has continued. The Portuguese manager has won five of his first seven games in charge, the only loss coming to Juventus. Pulisic has been instrumental when fit, and now has 12 goal involvements in 15 starts.

It is yet another busy week for Pulisic and Milan. Dinamo Zagreb are up next in the Champions League. A draw there should be enough to secure an automatic spot in the last 16 of the competition. After that, they face Inter in a crucial Serie A clash.
