AC Milan won over Lecce in the Copa Italia last night. The 3-0 victory was a statement of excellence on the field. Gimemez, Pulisic and new man signed from Chelsea Nkunku were on the scoresheet.
AC Milan delivered a commanding performance last night as they brushed aside Lecce 3-0 in the Copa Italia, sending a strong message of intent. The Rossoneri looked sharp from the outset and showed no mercy as they booked their spot in the next round.
Giménez opened the scoring with a well-taken finish before Christian Pulisic doubled the advantage, capping off a flowing attacking move. The highlight of the night, however, came from new signing Christopher Nkunku, who found the net for his first goal in Milan colors. The former Chelsea man celebrated in trademark fashion, inflating a balloon, a gesture familiar to fans from his Bundesliga days.
Nkunku’s arrival has brought excitement and expectation to San Siro, and his debut strike could be the beginning of a fruitful chapter. Whether he proves to be the missing piece in Milan’s attacking setup remains to be seen, but early signs suggest he could play a pivotal role.
