Christian Pulisic was officially elected MVP of the match won by the Rossoneri 3-0 against Lecce on the San Siro stadium ground. The news was announced directly by the club's official website on via Aldo Rossi, highlighting how the winger's performance earned the full support of the Diavolo supporters in the post-match digital poll.

In his first start in the league, after the assist provided as a substitute in the previous commitment against Lazio, Christian Pulisic immediately made his mark by unlocking the match in the fourteenth minute of the first half. He took perfect control of the vertical ball played by Strahinja Pavlović and the subsequent left-footed finish left goalkeeper Wladimiro Falcone with no chance, setting the evening on a favourable track for the Milan side.

The player's incisiveness continued with great consistency in the second half, a phase in which the development of the offensive move repeatedly passed through his feet. The number eleven therefore facilitated the action of the double-goal with an elegant back-heel to Adrien Rabiot, who then featured in the subsequent exchange with Diego Moreira and the winning strike. His influence on the team's tactical balance remained fundamental for the entire duration of the official encounter.

In the tally of preferences expressed by fans for the individual award, Christian Pulisic surpassed the competition from the other goal authors of the evening, namely Adrien Rabiot and Diego Moreira (already elected best player in the previous away match against Lazio), as well as the guaranteed depth contribution from Luka Modrić, valuable in dictating the tempo of the maneuver in midfield.
