Pulisic and Hutchinson Secure Win for Milan

Milan won 2-0 away at Udinese. Following a 3-0 defeat to Bournemouth in the Europa League, the Rossoneri went into this match without several star players. Adrien Rabiot, Diego Moreira, Mario Gila, Samuel Chukwueze, Matteo Gabbia, Alexis Saelemaekers and Pietro Terracciano were all out of the squad, so the coaching staff made extensive rotations.

The first goal came in the sixth minute. Pulisic broke the offside trap from Luka Modric's quickly taken free kick, running behind the defence to open the scoring. Pulisic said that when Modric has the ball, his job is to run into the free space and be ready. Hutchinson scored the second goal, and Milan went 2-0 ahead.

Hutchinson joined Milan on loan from Nottingham Forest at the end of the transfer window, with an option to buy. Tonight he scored his first goal for the club, finishing Ardon Jashari's effort. After the goal he took off his shirt and gave it to a child in the stands. Pulisic, reminding that Milan have often struggled in the first halves of matches this season, said that this time the early goal gave the team the start it wanted.
