Description

In their 4-2 victory over the Czech powerhouse Thursday, Pulisic found himself on the scoresheet late for the Rossoneri, tapping in a late effort to give them an even larger advantage. The goal itself, though, was all Leao - who dribbled and dazzled past defenders before firing his effort on frame only to see the American winger get a toe on it to push it in the back of the net. The American superstar is now at nine goals across all competitions, including two in Europe. In total, he has nine goals and six assists, amounting to 15 goal contributions for Stefano Pioli's side, his best-ever campaign in his professional career. Now, he's helped them into a massive advantage heading into leg two of their last-16 tie with Prague, securing a two-goal cushion on Thursday night. The Rossoneri have a Serie A clash at the weekend against Empoli as they look to leapfrog second place Juventus in the standings; the Bianconeri hold a one-point lead on Pulisic and co. Then, they return to Europe, with their leg-two clash on the road in the Czech Republic as they look to advance in the competition.
