Christian Pulisic kept up his scoring form as AC Milan netted three goals in five minutes shortly before halftime in a 3-0 win over Lecce in the Italian league on Friday
Álvaro Morata put the home side ahead with a glancing header from Theo Hernandez’s free kick after 38 minutes. Hernandez then ran on to a pass from Rafael Leão and lashed the ball into the roof of the net from a tight angle two minutes later before Pulisic made it 3-0 just before halftime.
It was the American’s fifth goal in seven games this season and takes his combined total of goals and assists since joining the Rossoneri in June last year to 32, higher than anyone else in the Serie A.
Davide Bartesaghi was shown a straight red card for Milan with 10 minutes remaining but it was too late to give Lecce hopes of a comeback.
The victory takes Milan to 11 points and joint top of the league with Torino, although the Turin club has a game in hand against Lazio on Sunday.
Lecce remains fourth from bottom of the 20-team league, with just one win and five points from its first six games.
