Watch: Cisse and Pulisic strike early as Milan take 2-0 lead against Genoa

By: Oliver Fisher

AC Milan got themselves ahead at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris early on against their hosts Genoa, thanks to the revelation Alphadjo Cisse.

In the 13th minute, Milan took the lead through Cisse. The goal was assisted by Adrien Rabiot who found the run of the Italian with a nice square ball, but Pulisic was the one who won possession back on the high press to create the opportunity, which was well finished by Cisse for his eighth goal of the campaign.

In the 19th minute, the Rossoneri doubled their lead. Another successful press forced Ostigard into a mistake as his square ball back towards the goalkeeper was cut off by Ramos. The Portuguese squared to Pulisic after evading a defender, and the American made no mistake as he fired inside the near post to make it 2-0.
