Christian Pulisic marked his AC Milan debut with a bang, scoring a tremendous goal from distance in the first half against Bologna.
The U.S. national team star was in Milan's lineup for its Serie A opener on Monday, and he didn't take long to make an impact.
First, Pulisic played a lofted ball over Bologna's defense for Tijjani Reijnders, who squared across the face of goal for Olivier Giroud to slam home the opener just 11 minutes in.
Ten minutes later, Pulisic and his old friend Giroud teamed up again for a goal. This time the American applied the finish, and it was a stunning way to get his account up and running in Italy.
Pulisic played a one-two with the Frenchman before unleashing a rocket from outside the box into the far corner.

With the goal, the 24-year-old became the first American to score in three of the "big five" European leagues, having now found the net in the Bundesliga, Premier League and Serie A.
Pulisic's goal would end up being the final one of the game, with Milan holding on for a season-opening 2-0 win at the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara.
