Christian Pulisic continued his scoring streak as AC Milan scored three goals in just five minutes before halftime, winning 3-0 against Lecce in the Italian league on Friday.

Álvaro Morata opened the scoring with a header from Theo Hernandez’s free kick in the 38th minute. Hernandez then received a pass from Rafael Leão and shot into the net from a tight angle just two minutes later. Pulisic added the third goal right before halftime.

This marked Pulisic’s fifth goal in seven matches this season, bringing his total number of goals and assists to 32 since joining Milan in June last year, making him the highest in Serie A.
