AC Milan did not have a good time against Inter Milan on matchday 4 of Serie A. The American midfielder Christian Pulisic was significantly positioned as a starter in this match, however, he did not manage to have the best of starts with the team, far from its best game. In fact, the AC Milan coach decided to remove him from the match in the last 30 minutes of the match. It should be remembered that Pulisic had scored in two of the last three games.

 

In the 37th minute, Thuram received from the left, went face to face with his marker, hooked into the middle and took a clinical right hand, which traveled directly to Maignan's left corner. Inter Milan's number 9 celebrated by putting his hands over his ears to hear the goal shout of his fans, in the face of such a masterpiece. The shot came out with unbeatable speed and precision.

Inter have had an impressive start to the season, leading Serie A with nine points from three games. Three players stand out in this brilliant start: Denzel Dumfries, Hakan Çalhanoğlu and the lethal Lautaro Martínez. Denzel Dumfries has become an asset on both defense and offense. His ability to overcome defensive lines and deliver accurate crosses has been a great addition to the team. In fact. Pulisic was held back in a great way by the defense.

 

Why was Pulisic replaced?

The American midfielder was not having a good time against Inter Milan. Pioli decided it was time to make way for Samuel Chukwueze, a Nigerian player with great speed. Curiously, after Pulisic left, Rafael Leao scored the momentary 2-1. It should be remembered that Milan has already gone 4 games without being able to beat Inter Milan in all competitions. AC Milan have made an impressive start in Serie A, collecting nine points from three games. However, this match turned out to be very difficult as it was completely nullified by Inter's defense.
