  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    U.S. international Christian Pulisic can't stop scoring - or at least appears so in his past five matches for club and country.

    The 26-year-old's hot streak continued with his fifth goal in as many games in his club AC Milan's match against Lecce at the San Siro Friday.

    The visitors kept the Rossoneri at bay for the opening 37 minutes and then Milan picked things up. Alvaro Morata scored his second goal of the season in the 38th minute, followed by Theo Hernandez's strike in 41st minute. Pulisic would wrap up a wild five-minute spell with a timely finish on a counter attack to set the lead to 3-0.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    After a slow start to the season, Milan are suddenly on a roll, picking up back-to-back wins, and then built a three-goal lead at halftime Friday.

    One key storyline to monitor, from the U.S. perspective, is Yunus Musah's playing time. The midfielder has only one start this season after being a key member of last season's team and has had limited minutes this campaign.

  • WHAT NEXT FOR MILAN?

    Pulisic and Milan have two more matches prior to the international break, a Champions League tie against Bundesliga champions Leverkusen on Oct. 1 and a Serie A clash against Fiorentina.
