Christian Pulisic scores to put Milan Derby in the Italian Super Cup final

AC Milan will face city rivals Inter in the final of the Italian Super Cup after they beat Juventus 2-1 in Friday’s semi-final in Saudi Arabia.

Juventus took a first-half lead after Turkish striker Kenan Yıldız converted a sublime pass from Samuel Mbangula, but AC Milan surged in the second half.

Christian Pulisic equalized from the penalty spot after 71 minutes and Juventus defender Federico Gatti deflected a cross into his own net to settle the game five minutes later.

Pulisic was named player of the match for his performance.

AC Milan face Inter, who beat Atalanta in the other semi-final on Thursday, in Monday’s final in Riyadh. Inter have won the last three Super Cups.
