Christian Pulisic scored his first goal of the Serie A season for AC Milan, yet the team suffered a disappointing 2-1 loss against newly promoted Parma. After Parma took an early lead through Dennis Man, Pulisic equalized in the 66th minute following a well-executed play involving Rafael Leão. The joy was short-lived as substitute Matteo Cancellieri netted the game-winner for Parma just 11 minutes later. This match marks Milan's second consecutive poor result under new coach Paulo Fonseca, following a 2-2 draw in their opener against Torino. Pulisic's goal also made him the first U.S. men’s national team player to score in ten different seasons of European soccer, highlighting his individual achievement despite the team's struggles. Milan's performance raised concerns about their offensive strategy and overall adaptability under Fonseca's management.
