VIDEO: Christian Pulisic by an inch! USMNT star gets his toe on the end of Rafael Leao’s stupendous solo effort to give AC Milan breathing space in Europa League last-16 tie

<p>In their <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/christian-pulisic-usmnt-ac-milan-europa-league-slavia-prague/bltb583bb8ac8013865" target="_blank">4-2 victory over the Czech powerhouse Thursday</a>, Pulisic found himself on the scoresheet late for the Rossoneri, tapping in a late effort to give them an even larger advantage. The goal itself, though, was all Leao - who dribbled and dazzled past defenders before firing his effort on frame only to see the American winger get a toe on it to push it in the back of the net.</p>
